Correct. I should have mentioned that you need to enable logging of the
Windows Firewall first. If the Windows Firewall does not show the needed
info you may want to try a third party software firewall. Sygate used to
excel at logging but I don't believe it is around anymore though you may
still find places to download it.

found the firewall log too. Guess it is not there by default.

There should be an entry in the security log available via Event Viewer

type 10 logon events. However you may need see the IP address but instead
the name of the computer. Firewall logs [hardware or host] may help track
down the IP of the computer if you match the logs to the time of the type
10
logon event.

Logon Type 10 - RemoteInteractive
When you access a computer through Terminal Services, Remote Desktop or
Remote Assistance windows logs the logon attempt with logon type 10 which
makes it easy to distinguish true console logons from a remote desktop
session. Note however that prior to XP, Windows 2000 doesn't use logon
type
10 and terminal services logons are reported as logon type 2.

Are there any logs created on the host machine showing when someone
made a
RDP connection. I would like to know what user and what IP address was
used
to establish a connection.
