"SA" Insuffient Permission

Hi!
I just set up an alert to know when someone try to use the SA account.
This morning I received the alert in my inbox. Is working fine.
Do you know if there is any way that I can Know WHO is the user or computer
trying to use the SA account?
You help will be really aprecitated.
Kind Regards.
Hernan VilarHi,
Alert can fire a task which will search the sysprocesses table and
insert into a audit table (Normal table) with the below info,
HOSTNAME,
NTusername,
GETDATE()
Thanks

|||If the connection using SA is actually made this method will work. If the
connection fails then the method will not work bedause there is no entry in
sysprocesses. If the connection fails, I am not aware of a method to
determine who attempted the connection.

10-20,000 a night, it could get messy.
I would consolidate the logins or you may get a few emails 8-)..
