Used login should never lock.

[Mehul_5]

Is there a command to never lock account of a user? After three wrong login attempts, user account expires and I want to change this behaviour.

[Mel Burslan · Accepted solution]

SAM --> Accounts for Users & Groups --> Users

find your user and highlight the line

Actions --> Modify Security Policies --> General User Account Policies --> Unsuccessful Login Tries Allowed --> Customize :

here you will be given the number of tries currently allowed. Changing it to zero I think eliminates this restriction totally.

Create a dummy user and test it before changing it on a live user's account in my opinion.

Hope this helps

See modprpw man page for details on parameters that can be set.

parameter for user login attempts is

umaxlntr=value database u_maxtries.

Set Maximum Unsuccessful Login tries allowed.

0 = infinite.
