Thanks for the help! Once I was able to spend some quality time with the server I found the Event Viewer on my own... I really should really RTFM some day.

Speaking of hacking attempts, do I need to worry about Anonymous Logins? I the viewer they’ll be a group of 4, but the first one of the group will have a registered user’s name in the ANONYMOUS LOGIN properties.
