This issue has literally plagued our environment since we first rolled out JAMF over a year ago and it's driving me so far up the wall.
Seemingly randomly, local accounts will just stop taking the user passwords. It's 110% the correct password, but MacOS insists its wrong. Sometimes it will still let the user account unlock filevault, then tell them their password is wrong for loggin in to the system. Sometimes it happens to our local admin account that we create via JAMF! It's happened on workstations that were enrolled for 6+ months with no issue, and its happened to workstations right after a reboot as part of enrollment.
Sometimes if you log in with an admin account and manually change the password for the affected account it takes it and everything's great. Most of the time MacOS gives a nondescript "password change failed" error and the account is seemingly corrupted forever.
Happens on Catalina, Big Sur, even Mojave. No AD binding or anything like that, just regular old local user accounts.
We just had three more pop up this week right in a row after not seeing it for months, we'll get a couple of these in a wave then nothing for a while before it suddenly comes back at the worst time. Both JAMF support and Apple support haven't been able to figure it out. Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
