Believe me, if you will tell me exactly what you want / need to know, I will
get it for you.
Let me see if I can make this as clear as possible.
I have the latest engine and DAT for McAfee VirusScan 8.0i, as well as for
Desktop Firewall, Windows XP Pro, AdAware, and SpyBot. I have no drives
mapped or printers. These two systems are only within the same subnet. On the
Windows XP Pro box, the system will ( every 1/2 second ) try to log on to the
NtLmSss on the Windows 3003 Server. It shows up in the Security Event Log on
the server as .....
Event 538 Logon/Logoff
680 Account Logon
576 Priviledge Use
540 Logon/Logoff
Each time the 540 event is from the same PC, same IP, but different port. It
also moves up ports by 3 at a time. ie...2546, 2549, 2552 and so on.
In TCPView on the workstatioin, it will show the latest as listening and the
four to five instances as waiting.
If there is any other info that you think will help, by all means let me
know and thank you for your assistance so far....
