Accounts User IDs keep getting logged out.

[yeewaitu]

Hi. I am having a weird problem.

Account userIDs keep on getting locked by itself. The weird thing is that the computer is switched off and in the Audit Log, I can see that a domain server seems to be continually accessing this switched off computer.

Since I have set the security policy to lock the user account after 3 incorrect login attempts, this would naturally cause the user's account to be locked.

I have checked the event viewer and I have found this
Logon Failure:
Reason: Account locked out
User Name: de405
Domain: NPT
Logon Type: 3
Logon Process: KSecDD
Authentication Package: MICROSOFT_AUTHENTICATION_PACKAGE_V1_0
Workstation Name: \\NEILCHAPPLE

The workstation name remains the same throughout and it is my Win2k server. Is it possible for this Win2k server to continuously try to attempt to login to a switched off computer?

Please help. Thanks!

I am still facing the same problem.

Does anyone know how to resolve this problem that I have stated above?

Please help. Thanks!

Do you have a drive mapped to that workstation?

Thanks! The problem was resolved after a systems patch and a reboot.
