Experts,

Running Windows Server 2003 SP1. This system is an internal DC (hosting no
web sites, has no SQL server, etc...). It does run SUS and has Remote
Desktop enabled. Anyway a couple times each day the Security event log
generates the below Failure Audits. Does anyone have a clue as to how I
should troubleshoot this? The User in the main Event ID area is User: NT
AUTHORITY\SYSTEM and in the Description pane below the "User Name:" is
usually blank. When it is not blank it is either my logon ID or the domain
admins login ID. The Client Address is also always the admin workstation
(which has no viruses) I primarily use.

Event Type: Failure Audit
Event Source: Security
Event Category: Account Logon
Event ID: 673
Date: 12/1/2005
Time: 2:45:23 PM
