Is there any way to check where an admin login came from? We had someone logged on as administrator on our NT network. They deleted the everyone account.
We know when it happened but I'd love to be able to track the change to a machine name or IP address.
The password had just been changed that day to a secure password so I don't think it was a password compromise.
Thanks.

Well An I think you have a challenge her.
I don't know how many clients there are but if you login on a client and log off the last name is safed so you could check the clients what the last login name was (administrator)
I would advice to never use the administrator + passw ; let the domain admins use their own name and pwd
As they are in the domain admin group they have admin rights.
I will think about this problem
