Hi there
Iam battling this issue for a while now and still can't figure out the
source. Our server is getting bombarded with Logon type 3 attempts (9258
last night).
Is it possible that one of our workstations got compromised and is being
used as entry point? Or is it a SMTP attack (this is a SBS 2003 server)?
Process ID 1720 is inetinfo.exe
Any help is appreciated, Thanks

I've got the same issue. I'm under attack (same as the rest of the computing world I suppose).....did you make any headway on this issue? I've also got 529's from a wide variety of other external IPs. I set up an IP Security rule to block all traffic from the IPs. The problem is, it isn't real time.....I read the logs then add the offending addresses. It's reactive, not proactive. OYE!

Kindly let me know if you've found any solutions.
