RE: [SA-list] Authentication Errors

Title: Message

To make sure I'm understanding, if someone logs on to the server that is running SA, and connects to a share on a monitored server, it will cause this problem? But only if they log in as the account that SA is using to check to the remote systems?

 

Am I understanding that correctly?  I didn't realize that could be a problem, it may very well be the issue if that's so. I can try using a different account for SA  as you mentioned.

 

Thanks for the suggestions....

 

Jesse.

easy way to test what dirk is saying is to create an admin account strictly for SA...so that no one else would be interacting with that account locally...

Could it be that somebody logged on to the system (localy) and made a connection to these remote systems?

Hello All,
                I'm running SALIVE v4.0.1376, running as a service. I have my disk space checks configured to use a domain admin account, and everything will run fine for a  while, then suddenly I start getting many alerts that a lot of the drives are down, with the following in the SA log:

Wednesday, August 20, 2003 11:18:15 AM INF: Diskspace check via drive letter due to username
Wednesday, August 20, 2003 11:18:15 AM ERR: connect to host failed:  1219 but ignored due to authenticationerrorignore list

Wednesday, August 20, 2003 11:18:17 AM Sending email message (BOSEX Drive E: is less than 10 gb {24} is DOWN with )

Restarting the service seems to fix it. Are there any suggestions to resolve this?

Thanks!

Jesse.
