Audit Failure event id 673 caused by svcSQLServer

  • The 0x1B indicates that the server principal is valid for user-to-user only. The thing that stands out to me is the service name. I'm not sure why it's the same as the user. Have you verified your SPNs are correct? I'm stretching here, because I can't find much on it, either.
