Hi,

We are getting a lot of entries in the Windows event log indicating 'Login
failed for user 'sa'' and 'root'. It seems like an obvious hack attempt but
is there any way of determining the source (ip address) of these attempts. I
can't understand why SQL doesn't log the ip address of login attempts.

Thanks - Ian
