Another DC has the same problem, but this time the workstation name is PRC41 instead of PRC42. Same sequence of events (673, 532) and the mentioning of an expired account. I've made a list of expired accounts. Most of them are regular users, one of them is an administrator equivalent account.

How can we figure out what is causing this event and which account is causing it?
