# kinit admin kint: Client's credentials have been revoked while getting initial credentials
Then while looking at /var/log/httpd/error_log:
[date] [:error] [pid] [remote 192.168.1.50:96] Database Error: Server is unwilling to perform: Too many failed logins.
What the? How can my admin account be getting locked?

Do you have an IPA client exposed to the internet? Drive-by test logins often try admin and yould lock you out. You should filter the users with sssd. Add this to your /etc/sss/sssd.conf and restart sssd:
[nss] filter_users = root, admin

I’l try that, but this system is on a private network. It _is_ a replacement that I’m trying to set up to replace two others (see my saga with having lost our CA and being unable to retrieve it), so it’s possible that someone is somehow getting to this one instead of the others and it’s just not ready for them yet.
That said, when I used my personal account which is in the admins group, I was able to see that admin wasn’t disabled. Hmmmm.

A lockout is a temporary thing depending on password policy.
A lockout doesn't show in user-show, only in user-status.
