I am using SQL 6.5, I would like to monitor the failed login attempts by viewing the failed login/password. How can I capture this information?

I've turned the password logging on. It apparently goes to the NT Service logs. Where do those reside on XP?

In the Application Log in Event Viewer in Admin Tools in Control Panel. Does 6.5 even run on XP?

You would also see it in the SQL Server Error Logs.

It indeed is running on XP. I figured out the login-logging, now I just need to log the password too!
