Well, I have a commitment tonight so I've temporarily employed a
non-solution solution I found suggested.  I've set my lock outs to
expire after 11 minutes.  So, at least the locks will be released and my
users will be able to connect (I hope).  

I'll check on it when I get home and have access and see how it's going.
Haven't had any events since 10:00am MDT so maybe they've given up (at
least for now).

Hmm...I didn't see your post about IP's.  And, I'm not seeing IP's.

Forget the machine names - they can be bogus and/or changed.  What u
need to do is look @ the IP's like I said in my previous post.

Looks like.  It's got the right uid's but wrong passwords.  After five
failed attempts, the account is locked out.

One of the machine names was familiar to us--a commercial customer on
our wireless network.  We asked them to check that machine.  I suspected
it was infected with a trojan.  They just called back.  That looks like
a good possibility for that machine.  However, there have been 3
different machine names we've found--on different networks.
