How do I get my Windows Domain Controllers to write an
event log every time someone fails to login?
I have logging turned on but it seems like the only place
I can track failed logins is on the computer where the
login was attempted.

Also if I try to login locally to the server and it fails
then a log is created in the security event log.

It is really not practical to search the event logs on all
the computer on my network.

If I can't get them logged on the Domain Controller is
there a way to launch a script when this event takes place?

Any help would be great, thanks
