Spiceworks Inventory service account many failed log on attempts

I am having a problem with the inventory feature for spiceworks 7.3. We originally had version 6.2 hosted on our internal network (Which is not connected to the internet) and besides some random issues everything worked fine. We upgraded the client to 7.3 after some discussion. After we were still able to log in and see all of our information like before. We set a new password for the service account in spiceworks and in active directory. In 24 hours our auditing software showed that there were over 120,000 failed log on attempts from spiceworks and the account was locked out. After turning off many of the new features that check the network and setting up a new password it is still producing many failed log on attempts. Does anyone have a clue what could be causing this issue? And this network cannot connect to the internet to...

Only 4 years. This issue has been there since iChat 2 and was first spotted with Zyxel routers/modems.
It has become more of an Issue when using Port Forwarding on devices that now offer Protocol selection on Port Forwarding (port 5190 on the TCP for Login and UDP fro File Sharing and pics in chats) as one port can not be forwarded to two devices (it seems to cross over to just port forwarding twice in these devices).
I have never known it happen on a Netgear.
It is not limited to specific devices. There is some speculation that the AIM servers get too busy on port 5190 with several dozen clients as well as iChat and AIM on a PC using the same port.
The AIM servers will in fact allow almost any port.
443 has been suggested here by the regular posters as port used by Mail and Web browsers fro secure connections and therefore open in Tiger and earlier Firewalls and most modems and routers because it is below the 1024 threshold where ports need to be specifically opened.

  • Unlocking restrictions after 7 failed log in attempts.

    I had set restrictions on my son's ipod touch.  He and a friend tried to guess the password and have locked up the restrictions section. It says to try again in 13,737,774 minutes.  I restored the ipod however it still locked. How can I get the restrictions to unlock?

    Yu have to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod or wait 26 years.

  • Powershell DSC - xSQLServerInstall - Fails When Using Domain Service Accounts

    I'm using the xSQLServerInstall  from

  • Sapjsf locks ABAP service user psswd: M  ***LOG US1= Login, Wrong Password

    I have a PI system and a number of ABAP systems connecting to this.
    I have defined a service user in PI for each ABAP system - SY_SID_999 (where SID is the SAP System ID and 999 is the client).  Various connections (e.g., RFC, ABAP proxy) use these userid and I rely on the user name to identify the source of the activity within PI.
    I was forced to change the password of one of these userids and, subsequently,  to update connection details in RFCs etc within the source system.  All went well for these connections.
    Now, however, at 25 minutes past the hour, I get the following error in the PI system's developer trace
    M  ***LOG US1=> Login, Wrong Password (SY_SID_999 ) [sign.c       4545]
    and the SM21 log says
    10:25:47 DIA  000 100 SAPJSF                  US  1 User SY_SID_999 locked due to incorrect logon
    SU01 change records show no changes to SY_SID_999 from the time I unlock it until 25 minutes past the hour when this error occurs. 
    The SM19 security audit log in the PI system has errors:
    12.08.2009     10:08:18     SAPJSF     localhost          SAPMSSY1     Logon Failed (Reason = 53, Type = U)
    Type=U means "user switch (internal call)" according to the documentation.
    Reason 53 means "Too many failed password logon attempts"
    These errors occur in bunches but without a consistent repetition interval.  For example, there were 8 at 10:04:56/57 then 2 at 10:08:18 then a string of success messages as follows:
    12.08.2009     10:08:18     SAPJSF     localhost          SAPMSSY1     Logon Successful (Type=U)
    Then, at 10:25...
    12.08.2009     10:25:47     SAPJSF     localhost          SAPMSSY1     User SY_SID_999 Locked in Client 100 After Erroneous Password Checks
    12.08.2009     10:25:47     SAPJSF     localhost          SAPMSSY1     Logon Failed (Reason = 1, Type = U)
    If I do not unlock the SY_SID_999 userid in the PI ABAP system, there will be no further errors in SM21 but if I do, at 25 minutes past the hour after the error pattern will repeat.
    I have set the rfc/logon_error_log parameter to 3 in PI ABAP to trigger a short dump.
    Internal notes from the short dump do not identify the who, what or where of the sign-on attempt...
    Internal notes
        The termination was triggered in function "ab_xsignon"
        of the SAP kernel, in line 2725 of the module
         "//bas/710_REL/src/krn/rfc/absignon.c#4".
        The internal operation just processed is "CALY".
        Internal mode was started at 20090812112528.
        Caller system......: " "
        Caller.............: " "
        Caller client......: " "
        RFC user ID........: " "
        RFC client.........: 100
        Login return code..: 20
        Transaction code...: " "
        (Note: In releases < 4.0, no information on the caller is available)
    The source system represented by the SY_SID_999 userid is an ABAP ONLY stack so has no sapjsf userid.  (For the record, SY_SID_999 doesn't exist in client 999 of SID either - it's defined in the PI system to do work on behalf of SID client 999.)
    So the question, after all that, is:
    How do I identify the source of this password error?

    Thanks Michael
    I did get a short dump during the testing process and it indicates that the failed RFC logon attempt originates from within the PI system.  My implementation partner was rather careless in the assignment of userids to connections so, while this userid should only be used for connections originating from the SID, I cannot guarantee that.
    I've been into both my PI system and the ABAP system (which doesn't have a sapjsf userid so should not be the offending party) and run an SQL select script to find all RFC destinations which contain the string "SID" or "sid" in any of the RFCOPTIONx fields.  I've carefully checked out each of these RFC destinations and, in SID they contain the SY_SID_999 userid and, when that's unlocked in PI, the connection and authorisation tests succeed.  That rules out upper/lower case issues and pretty much eliminates these legitimate RFC destinations from the suspect list.  The RFC destinations identified in the PI system by the SQL search contain "SID" because they name that as their target system; these definitions don't reference the SY_SID_999 userid at all.
    All the evidence I can find points very strongly to some process running as SAPJSF in the Java stack of the PI (dual stack) system calling something on the ABAP side and trying to connect as SY_SID_999.  Trouble is I can't find it.  In fact, I'm don't even know where to start looking to find a job running in the Java stack - on the ABAP side I'd head for SM37 but what to use on the Java side?

  • Service Account details are not going through header(OSB Business service)

    Hi
    I have an issue with service account. Assume I have a proxy service A, Business Service B, Proxy service C.
    A invokes B and B invokes C (A --> B --> C). All calls are through http protocol.
    I created a service account with userid and password details and attached it to the Business service B(Static for basic authentication).
    Added log activity in proxy service C for context variable $header to verify whether userid and password are coming through request header or not.
    I executed proxy service A from sbconsole but I couldn't see userid and password details of created service account in the logs. Only nemespace are logged in the file.
    <soap:Header xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"></soap:Header>>
    Can someone please help me why service account details are not going through business service request. Am I missing any steps?
    Thanks in advance
    KK
    Edited by: 966531 on Oct 23, 2012 4:23 AM

    Basic authentication information is stored under transport headers (check $inbound) whereas $header is populated for message headers (for e.g. - SOAP headers), so you should be checking $inbound instead of $header

    We are currently running VSC 4.2 with ONTAP 8.2P2 on vCenter 5.1 and the VSC service account is logging in and out of vCenter every 10 secs.  I have run the steps below and still had the same issue. (Recommended on another thread...)     •    Log into the VSC server over RDP using an administrator account    •    Open a web browser and go to https://localhost:8143/Register.html    •    For troubleshooting purposes, re-register using an administrator account (local)    •    Make sure you're entering the IP addresses of the vCenter and VSC servers for the registration    •    Click the register button    •    Montor the sessions to see if there are still logins each 10seconds (after initial logins are completed)Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks, IT

    This is a new install of NetApp.  We don't have anything on the storage yet.  VSC 4.2 was installed on vCenter for performance testing right now.  One thing I have noticed was, when I try accessing the VSC snap-in.  It takes like 65secs to come up.  That's not normal.  -IT
