security log filling with events 538/540/576


Recommended Posts

Posted

We just set up a new SBS 2003 premium server and we're getting a lot of

events 538/540/576 in the security log, I just counted 140 entries in 4

minutes. We have Symantec Endpoint small business 11.0 installed on the

server and MozyPro (an online backup utility). Exchange, IIS, and SQL 2005

are also running and there are 6 client PCs.

 

I've tried shutting down the services for SQL server, Symantec, and MozyPro

to see if that stopped/slowed the events and that didnt seem to have an

effect. Is turning off the auditing for those events the only solution?

here are some sample entries:

I am having the same issues, did you ever find a solution to this issue. When

we moved the PDC Emulator to another server that server began to have the

same issue along with 100% CPU Utilization.
