What operating system(s)? Domain or Workgroup? What changed between the time
things worked and the time they didn't?

A "cowboy admin"? No, I'm afraid I don't know what you mean. I assume you
are getting the "access denied" on the server but you haven't provided much
information. My first thought is that you should check the server for
viruses in case someone was using it wrongly, didn't patch it, etc. Then
you might want to post in the server newsgroup, this time providing full
information about your situation.

Well a cowboy admin is one who goes in and makes changes without letting
anyone know. As far as more in fo, it is not on the server. The client users
are getting the access denied when they attempt to change password at next
logon. Simply put, users cannot change their passwords. Not sure what else
you need to know. This just started the other day out of the blue. When new
user accounts are created or and admin forces a user to change password at
next logon, they get acces denied when they try to change it.
