Hi All, Has anyone seen this type of Windows Security Event Log activity before? This was found on multiple computers.... All within a 2 minute time frame...same username and domain. EVENT ID: 576 Special privileges assigned to new logon: User Name: username Domain: Logon ID: (0x0,0x5F893A8) Assigned: SeChangeNotifyPrivilege EVENT ID: 540 Successful Network Logon: User Name: username Domain: DOMAIN Logon ID: (0x0,0x5F893A8) Logon Type: 3 Logon Process: Kerberos Authentication Package: Kerberos Workstation Name: EVENT ID: 538 User Logoff: User Name: username Domain: DOMAIN Logon ID: (0x0,0x5F893A8) Logon Type: 3 One of the computers provided a source IP address so I have checked the computer of the user in question for root kits, trojans, ect. It is fully patched and has AV up to date thanks, Dave
I found an article from WindowsITPro.com formally winnetmag.com. What you are seeing is someone logging onto your server that has the following user right: Bypass traverse checking (SeChangeNotifyPrivilege)EVENT ID: 576 This is then followed by EVENT ID: 540 or 528 The article is titled, "Win2K Security Log Roundup". Normally user rights such as SeChangeNotifyPrivilege are not audited so you only see them when the user logs on.
