Yeah, from the workstation DSTRICKLAND.

A 528 entry is a successful logon. This can happen for many reasons. Not all of which are ominous. Is this a member server or a domain controller? Normally, this type of message will show up on member servers when a user is authenticated to a resource that doesn't actually exist on the server.

HTH,

no, it's not a member server, just a workstation. I have several other workstations that are showing these anon logins, but not nearly as many as this particular workstation.
