Monitoring sql server login attempts including IP ?! please help

Hello
I am using sql server 7 and I am doing a trace on successfull sql logins and
also on unsuccessfull ones.
Everything works fine, but the only thing missing for my trace to be
accepted is the origin IP address ?
I have to have the trace to have the IP adresse from where the sql login is
attempted from.
I know that from the process info I have the Host wich is actually fine, so
I imagine that the trace could include it or I could have a query to lookup
some other systable....
I really have to have this report....
Thanks !Trace (profiler) does not include the IP , and i don't know how to get it
( other than going through the hostname)

I actually can't even have the hostname from the trace, I get it from the
process info.
is there any way of cross querying the trace with the process info ? huhhh
now that I think of it, it will be pretty hard sine the failed login will
not show up on the process info.
thanks !

don't track the IP address for failed login attempts. I've requested this
feature for Yukon.
The only way you could capture this is to run a network trace on the server
while it's happening.

Monitoring Invalid Logins

I have a feeling someone is running a brute force password program against my
SQL Server. How can i see how many invalid attempts there was? And from which
IP Address? sp_monitor does not give me much information.
Thank you!
You can try a network sniffing utility like Network Monitor.

|||You can log failed logon attempts to the SQL Server log. Right-click the
server in Enterprise Manager and choose properties. Go to the security tab
and check the appropriate option under Audit level. Failure is I think the
default anyway. You can check the SQL Server logs, under the management
folder for the results.
From there you can see how many attempts there were, and against which
account, but that's about all the information you get. If you want more
information, you can set up a SQL Profiler trace, using the Audit Login
Failed Event.

You can also set up a server-side trace and monitor the following event:
