SYMPTOMS
The Net Watcher event log may show a duplicate entry for each failed
attempt to connect to one of your resources. Each entry shows the
exact same Date/Time, Computer, User, Share, Type, Access, Document,
and Event.
CAUSE
When the Windows for Workgroups redirector on the client machine
receives a message that the attempt to connect failed due to an
invalid password, the redirector tries to establish the connection
again using your logon password. In this situation, the server sees
two logon attempts and logs them both in the Net Watcher event log.
