Hi

What if I have some user , who has access to the SQL Server Client Tools, & he types in sql - L in the command line & gets access to the names of all the SQL Servers on the network .

He then tries registering the Servers using the SQL authentication using sa & tries some or the other password.... Now he would definately get an error ...

My question is that can we track the IP address or the Hostname of such a user ...

Thanks

You can run a trace and find this

You can also set SQL to log all fail logins, and monitor those in your event viewer.

Lists the locally configured servers and the names of the servers broadcasting on the network.
