[WinMac] NT User Policy Question

I'm on a NT4 network with windows and mac clients and would like to set up
a "general" account with a specific username and password. However, since
this would be a share account, I don't want the account to be locked out
after x number of invalid password attempts, as it would also lock out
legit users of the account.

Can anyone tell me how to set such policies on an individual account? (I'm
not afraid of the registry)...

Additional Question: Should I consider using the NT guest account? Can I
assign a password for it? Will that account be exempt from being locked
out? Can I access that account from a Mac client without using the "Guest"
radio-button on the login screen?

Thanks for your help!
