Someone is trying to log onto that computer as administrator from
the network. It could be the internet or a lan computer. NtLmSsp means it is
trying to use ntlm to log on, which pretty much rules out W2K/XP domain
machines if you have a domain. Try to ping computername. If it on lan you
will probably resolve it if computer is still on and connected. If you are
connected to the internet and do not have a firewall, you need one. If it is
coming from the lan you should be able to track them down and do whatever it
is you do to people trying that stuff. To catch a lan hacker you could
configure a software firewall on your computer and log activity on ports 139
and 445 and compare entries in firewall log to failed authentication
attempts. --- Steve
