N-2 password history

N-2 password history

Password history check (N-2):  Before a Windows Server 2003 operating system increments  badPwdCount , it checks the invalid password against the password history. If the password is the same as one of the last two entries that are in the password history,  badPwdCount  is not incremented for both NTLM and the Kerberos protocol. This change to domain controllers should reduce the number of lockouts that occur because of user error.

Using AD Audit, is there a way to distinguish "real" bad password attempts vs ones which were triggered using mentioned setting?
