troubleshooting Question
Logon Failure: Reason: Unknown user name or bad password User Name: webmaster
rowek asked on
Could somebody please tell me where the user "webmaster" tried to log on to my server? It appears that it happened from on my server. We don't even have a userid called webmaster. We keep port 80 closed and only have 443 open. Did a program that sniffs 443 stumble across our private website from the outside? Note that this happend exactly at 6:00pm. We are running Windows Server 2003 SBS and Trend Micro Enterprise Antivirus. Could it be one of my serivces (like the Trend Micro) trying to log in?
