Hello,

Is there a way to configure SQL Server or even Profiler to
save or retrieve the IP Address of the system failing to
login to the server?

I receive this error in the Event Viewer/SQL Log:

18456:
Login failed for user 'sa'.

I have succeeded in logging this into profiler, but I have
found no way to resolve the IP Address.

Thanks,
