System and Nobody had no roles

I am trying to get the System access attempts with invalid credentials. Folks with unknown user names. I am using the following search part: index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd user=* component=UserManagerPro

There are a ton of messages with the following:
message="user=\"system\" had no roles" and message="user=\"nobody\" had no roles"

I believe they can just be filtered out and I am using version 7.0.4

Hi @dcrooks_cbp,
Please try changing your part of query with this:

index=_internal sourcetype=splunkd UserManagerPro NOT TERM("had no roles")

Hope this helps!!

Hi @dcrooks_cbp,
Can you please provide a sample raw event? As on my dev instance I do not have any event with this criteria.
