I'm also wanting clarification on the UF_LOCKOUT flag in
msDS-User-Account-Control-Computed and userAccountControl

It appears that msDS-User-Account-Control-Computed should be referred to
by SAMR, as the source of the lockout algorithm, but there no reference
from MS-SAMR to this attribute. 

Indeed, it is unclear how UF_LOCKOUT and UF_PASSWORD_EXPIRED is to
behave, as 3.1.1.6 (18) bans this bit, but in:

3.1.1.8.10
userAccountControl
1. If the UF_LOCKOUT bit (section 2.2.1.13) is set and the lockoutTime
attribute is nonzero, the
lockoutTime attribute MUST be updated to a value of zero.

This implies that it can be set in userAccountControl.  Also, the sense
here seems backwards, surely clearing the bit sets lockoutTime to zero?

Also it says:

2. The following bits, if set, MUST be unset before committing the
transaction: UF_LOCKOUT and
UF_PASSWORD_EXPIRED.

This further confuses me as to if these are computed or stored flags
(I'm assuming computed). 

This is the kind of level of detail I need in this area.

Please clarify,

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
