BigDaddy Posted April 10, 2004 Author Share Posted April 10, 2004 sounds like your workstation has been hacked,,, and some one has placed a new account on it or if its a server then they have an account on there... you should try to see if you can find any odd accountsIt is a server! But it doesn't have any strange new accounts. Except ADMINISTRATOR,GUEST,TOM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDaddy Posted April 10, 2004 Author Share Posted April 10, 2004 you really think about changing them policys to more surcure ones those are the default settingsand how should I set them?btw. I'm using KERIO 2.15 and whatever test I throw at him it is STEALTH and have all the latest critical updates installed!!! Should I even worry about those policies??And another thing, since I'm the only one using the server machine I don't have any password for ADMIN or user TOM which has ADMIN priviligies. Is this a big security risk?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likuidkewl Posted April 10, 2004 Share Posted April 10, 2004 Although remote logins are disable by default for accounts with no passwords yo might want to double check that in your secpol, also admin should ALWAYS have a password, I have had this discussion before and you can remotely mount IPC$ shares on admin accounts without a password.

hrp2171 Posted April 13, 2004 Share Posted April 13, 2004 Hi, BigDaddy!I have a Norton Ghost image that even when the Screensaver is set to none, it will still lock the screen after 15 mins. In order for me to disable it, I have to pick a Screensaver then clear the password protection.Terminals Services as well as Remote Desktop Connection will always ask for a login and a password. But by looking at the screenshot, I can tell the prompt box is coming from the screensaver settings.Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
