    Hi guys, I'm looking for a tool that will notify our helpdesk by email whenever an Active Directory account is locked out. I need the notification to have the details of who is locked out and if possible the IP address of the machine that was used at the time. Any ideas? Working in a Windows Server 2008 R2 AD environment and have a SMTP relay server available for this.

    Thanks tech. Just for anyone visiting this thread in the future, I managed to do this with a powershell command which runs in parallel with the Windows task scheduler. The trigger to start the powershell command is the security lockout event in real time. The powershell then grabs the info from the actual trigger event and emails the data collected to local relay smtp server, to the helpdesk email address
