The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Monitor Active Directory requests, User account being locked out

Asked by ibtaya in Active Directory, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), Windows 2003 Server

Tags: Microsoft, Active Directory, Server 2003 R2

Is there a tool that will tell me what is using my username on a server and causing me to be locked out.  I'm getting the event id 675 on my domain controller that is telling me to look at a specific ip address that is sending the request.

Event Type:      Failure Audit
Event Source:      Security
Event Category:      Account Logon
Event ID:      675
Date:            9/17/2008
Time:            5:56:15 PM
User:            NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer:      KNB4
Description:
Pre-authentication failed:
       User Name:      User
       User ID:            Domain\User
       Service Name:      krbtgt/Domain
       Pre-Authentication Type:      0x2
       Failure Code:      0x12
       Client Address:      10.1.x.x


On that server I'm getting an event id 539 account locked out.  

Event Type:      Failure Audit
Event Source:      Security
Event Category:      Logon/Logoff
Event ID:      539
Date:            9/17/2008
Time:            5:34:15 PM
User:            NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer:      VSERVER
Description:
Logon Failure:
       Reason:            Account locked out
       User Name:      UserName
       Domain:      DomainName
       Logon Type:      2
       Logon Process:      Advapi  
       Authentication Package:      Negotiate
       Workstation Name:      ServerName
       Caller User Name:      ServerName$
       Caller Domain:      Domain
       Caller Logon ID:      (0x0,0x3E7)
       Caller Process ID: 3556
       Transited Services: -
       Source Network Address:      -
       Source Port:      -

I can't find a think on this server that is using my login information.  I've searched the registery for Process ID: 3556 to no avail, searched for my username to no avail.  

Of course I've checked services and scheduled tasks.  Any help would be great.

If there's not a tool out there to monitor what on a server is making AD requests that would be a good one for someone to create and sell.


Thanks in advance
