You have the time it happened.

DSPLOG for right around that time will help point you at what address was
trying to connect & perhaps even an error message # associated with a
password failure.
I have QSYSMSG setup & it captures some info on this.
If you get what error message it is, you could then DSPLOG search for hits on
that message # ... check the archives, someone might have given it some time.

Some users do have problems with PC going down or other flakiness.
Some users have programmed their PC keyboard or macros to auto sign on for
them, which means when their PC goes flaky, their sign on ditto.

I did find a pattern as to TIME of failures correlating with when people in
certain offices were at lunch & found that some OTHER people were doing
guessing games with passwords.  I informed the normal occupants of the
offices.  This is another reason why I am glad so many of our people have
weird sign-on names that I have encouraged they adopt like HEYLADY & THEGURU
& WIZARD & PRODIGY because half the time the people doing the guessing games
are using the REAL names of the people who occupy those offices.
