So....Since the user doesn't work at 3am in the morning, am I right to be
concerned about this type 3 logon being suspicious? Or is it possible that
it's just system files doing updates or something?
I have checked memberships. The rights I assume are associated with these
memberships - non? Or is there some place in particular I should examine
their specific rights. Forgive me, I'm drawing a complete blank on rights. I
understand completely about the levels of user and security group
memberships, but specific rights?
thanks for your help with this.
