Scott,

I also from time to time see those same exact traps come in.  The
1.3.6.1.4.1.311 is Microsoft of course, so these are coming from our Windows
workstations, but I've yet to understand why.

Subject: [nv-l] Authentication Failure Traps Root Cause Question


NetView 7.1.3 AIX 4.3.3

I am getting a lot of these events in my trapd.log for different nodes and I
am a bit confused. I know this is probably a basic question but what is the
root cause for these events? It appears that I have the community names
configured correctly in xnmsnmpconf so I am at a loss here. It is probably a
concept that I am missing.
