I am tired of unlocking my accounts because a "poker" can
read my user names on my NT4 server and then try to guess
passwords (3 tries=1 hour lock out). They come in with
ANONYMOUS and have read rights to the Security Account
Manager, then take the list and try to guess passwords.
Is there a way to STOP them from seeing my user names so
they can just guess at Administrator or Guest (which do
not exist on my server)?
Any help would be appreciated here. I hate unlocking
the accounts 3 times a day because of someone trying to
guess passwords from outside the net.
