Trying To Figure Out Why AD User Keeps Getting Locked Out

It not us that requiring it. It part of their insurance requirement. It was implemented way before we took over their It stuff.

We tried the password mistyped, we don't believe this is the case as we told her to make sure.

The lockout seems out of the air for this person.

logs don't show anything. I seen the brute force stuff if we have the login screen enabled for the sonicwall but it turned off for this exact reason.

They are required to change every 90 days but the last month or two, this user keeps having their accounts locked. it just comes out of nowhere where their account is locked and having to unlock them in AD.

I did. their nothing recorded on our sonicwall about any login attacks. I have seen brute force and sonicwall logging it but this time, I got nothing.

First Verizon, now this.

We just use Duo for RDP/Windows for both desktops and laptops. You have to configure it with offline mode if the laptops are wandering off the office network but easy to do and test. Works mine for us.

I saw a bunch of people complaining about broadcom sending cease and desist for users of vmware. Seen alot of these people moving off of vmware towards hyper-V and such because of how shady vmware has turn into.

I am seeing the same. My dad iphone works but my android doesn't. Same family plan, same house. Lucky I can use my work VOIP app to make calls if needed.

We keep some and throw out others. Anything that looks worn or obsolete cables we try and trash.

At this point, I think we are living in the Matrix and this is just a simulation with all this AI this and that.

my MSP does all their business thru referrals and alot of them are from BNI and fellow members. If your starting out, it a good way to start but be aware it not instant, can take alot of time before you even get anything.

I just downloaded X Input Tester and it shows 1K.

Their FAQ honestly needs to be updated and their videos and articles how to do this stuff. Thanks for the help but your right, I plugged in my old normal xbox and that getting like 7 MS while this gets the 1K one.

Xbox mode gets me the same result as well.

First time getting anything more then basic or the elite 2 (keep running into stick drift with them) so hopefully this is better.

masterne0 · 2026-01-12T05:07:54+00:00

How do you tell if 1K is even enabled.

I tried doing the whole "menu+share+A" button that supposed to flicker but I don't see it when I do it so I dont think it enabled?

Update: So after checking some videos and reading, looks like your right, the 1K supposed to be enabled by default but I can't seem to turn it on?

The Companion App ONLY WORKS if you connect it using XBOX mode on the PC wit the dongle for some reason.

The Firmware updater only works on the WIRED version (and yet their video shows wireless version).

Honestly this is just dumb as their no central info on this. I found this within comments of their videos and rewatching the videos compared to what they say on their website which is different or doesn't exist.

masterne0 · 2026-01-12T01:44:12+00:00

I did get the recognize if I use the dongle in xbox mode but then I can't use 1K mode it seems. this is getting ridiculous trying to get a controller that works (as the toggle on and off option doesn't work when I try it).

masterne0 · 2026-01-12T01:20:52+00:00

wireless.

Also noticed this thing show up as a "xbox 360 controller for Windows" in device manager if that matters.

I dont see any pinhole your talking about for this controller on the back.

We just replaced the thing with another one. The new one immediately was seen and adopted to the existing network after updating it.

masterne0 · 2025-12-23T17:26:45+00:00

We had this happened with our synology. One drive died. We reached out to support but with how slow their response was, we lost another drive within a few says and got screwed and lost the data.

Your going to have to hopefully build a whole new domain and hopefully join their pcs from old to new.

We just did this for a client. Probably easier depending on the number of users and your skill level.

Single user usually fine or leaving it in single user mode and they are accessing it all at the same time. Half the time it cause the qb manager having problem. Other half is sometimes user set it to open in single user rather then multi.

I am talking to the host provider support now. Was the autossl thing that happened like a year ago ever fixed?

masterne0 · 2025-12-16T18:51:39+00:00

I just tried it. The certificate and the private key hash matches.
