| A. Set Account Lockout Duration to 0.
 | |
| claudio rivas 2002-05-06, 4:59 pm |
| The default is 30 Minutes | |

| 0 would make it never lock out
I'd go with C 99,999 which is 1666.65 hours long enough for me to manually reset the account | |
|
| "A" setting the duration to 0 will lock out the account until the admin unlocks it. | |

| "A" is correct.
jombeewoof,
Try to put in 0 and you'll see the description saying "Account is locked out until administrator unlocks it". | |
| cross36 2002-05-06, 9:07 pm |
| Duration to zero "A" | |
| Zaraspook 2002-05-06, 10:08 pm |
| How about A?  | |
| NetChild1985 2002-05-07, 4:50 am |
| yeah, it's "A"!!! | |

| Got it right this time..."I pressed post reply, not post new thread"!

| I'll go with "A" which definitely sets the duration of lockout to indefinite.
"B" is the number of attempts before the account locks out.
"C" is incorrect as this is 69.4 days(according to my calculator!).
I cannot for the life of me recall the default value so I can't comment on "D"! | |

| Thanks Spid!
I have made a note of this. You have saved me the effort of checking this when I get home! | |

| Must be A or D.
I'll go with A! | |
|

| A | |
| calidog 2002-05-15, 11:35 pm |
| I would go with A. | |
|
| gotta be A - 99,999 would be a bloody long time (but not long enough!!) | |
