  Hi,

  You can start with the below threads to see if you have prepared to determine lockouts sources.

  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc773155(v=ws.10).aspx

  http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2012/12/27/use-powershell-to-find-the-location-of-a-locked-out-user.aspx

  Use Lokoutstatus from Altools (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=18465) then check the source DC where lockouts are being reported. Use the event viewer on that DC and look for "failure audits" for that particular user acocunt or during that time frame reported on lockoutstatus. Use the event description to find the source workstations/server where the lockout is coming from and verify that server for any (disconnect RDP sessions, credentials manager, services running with domain accounts,applications,etc).

  Hope this helps.

  Regards,

  Calin
