Yeah the event log's will show you that. And there's a milllion and 8 tools out there to monitor both PC's and Servers (and firewalls, and printers, etc.....) which will enable you to see all the failed (and successful) log on attempts..... but only if you've got the permissions to perform the actions!

Regards,
Iain
