Hi,

I was going thru my event view for my SBS 2003. I was in the security tab
and I noticed that NT Authority\System was logging in at unusual hours. What
is NT Authority\System? Does it do regular logons to the client PC's on my
network for some type of test or something? Please advise.

Thanks,

Steve

Thats the machine itself, its doing whatever work it needs to. I would
ignore those alerts.
