Guess I should have put in all the relevant information,

I'm not running a firewall (this wasn't my decision so you don't have to
tell me how stupid that is) or an ISA server which means this attack can
be coming from anywhere.  Also, my attempts to ping the workstation name
come up with host not found error.

Any other suggestions???

Thanks,

Chuck

Hey all,

This is really off topic, but I am having problems find a solution.  

There are a number of workstations that are repeatedly trying to hack my
admin password on two of my subnets.  I can see when they try their
password attempts and they are using basic Microsoft Authentication.
However the Event Viewer only gives me the workstation name (and the
domain/work group name which is the same as the workstation name).  Does
anyone have any suggestions as to how I could pin down an IP address.  

The nature of these attempts (and timing) could point out that some
student either has been hacked or is purposely running these.  As such,
if I can discern an IP address I can put an end to them.

Thanks,

Chuck
