RE: Security Audit Issue - Please HELP!



Hi Jordan,

Thanks for posting here.

From your post, I understand that you receive 540 event in the security log
of your SBS server. If I have misunderstood the problem, please don't
hesitate to let me know.

First, I would like to introduce this event to you. Security event log 540
means a user successfully logged on to a network. You will find more detail
from the following page:

Windows Server 2003 Security Events
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/prodtech/windowsserver2003/secmod1
28.mspx#EIAA

I wonder if there is any negative impact per this event, if not, I assume
it's just an informational event, you can ignore it.

Generally, it is usual we see lots of this event in the SBS server, since
the clients now and then access the resource on the SBS server and
logon/off.

The quantity of the events will depend on the usage of your SBS server.

So, for this issue, there is no action needed for you and it is safe and
fine.

If you have concerns that you want to secure your SBS network, following
information is for your reference.

SBS document link also for your reference.

Hope info above helps.

Thank you and have a nice day.

Best regards,
