I'm getting quite a few Login failed for user '\' and Login failed for user '(null)' messages in my logs. Most of these are about the time of day when I would expect users to login (and sometimes fail) but I was wondering if anyone knows of any way to find a little more information about these attempts to perhaps trace the user

thanks in advance

if you've enabled audit failures,
you'll see them in the security logs
which will include logon account and workstation
