Hybrid AAD Network - Network Share Problems

My work is currently migrating from a fully on-prem environment to Microsoft 365 and SharePoint. However, due to various reasons, we've had to keep our on-prem domain active. Our domain controller runs on Windows SBS 2011 (Yes, I am aware that this is very, very old software, but the budget hasn't been there to upgrade it). Therefore, we have a virtual machine running Server 2012 that runs AD Sync. We have another SBS 2011 server that hosts our network shares.

All of our computers, aside from the servers, have been AD joined. We are having an issue now where some users, seemingly at random, are trying to access network shares, however when prompted to enter for their credentials, it refuses them even when they are correct. After a couple tries, their account gets locked out. I sometimes have luck by having them reset their password, however this does not always work.

Any ideas as to why this may be happening? I suspect it's just because of how messy our network is now; with the old software, hybrid environment, and general poor design and management of the network by previous IT guys. Very spit-and-duct-taped if you know what I mean.

On-prem file share? Lock happens on-prem too? cloud authentication got nothing to do with this, don't believe you need to point fingers to O365 or Azure. A good place to start would be to get a network trace and check what's happening between the client machines and the DC servers when the auth fails.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
