Frequent Event 529 Second Post



Hello

We have a fully patched SBS Prem box SP1 without ISA. I use Trend CSM, and
we using a Symantec Corporate Firewall.

I am getting hundreds of 529's every day from essentially every workstation.
I noticed this the week after a restore from tape and upgrade to SP1.

In my first post (Another Event 529) it was suggested that it might be a
Time Service issue but I don't think so now. I googled everything I could
think of and have seen a few similar reports but no resolution.

I have run AV and spywear scans on everything and did not turn up anything.

Any advise would be appreciated
