If your question i relating to SMB connections (for example \\servername\fileshare),
then you can see all logons in Windows Security Log. Just enable "Audit Logon Events" and "Audit Account Logon Events" in Administrative Tools->Local Security Policy->Local Policies->Audit Policy.

After some user is successfuly logged through network,
you can to find event 540 in Event Viewer->Security log. There is also IP address of client computer.

Hi Peter41:

I will explain more clearly to you:. We are using IIS Server for code deploymnets. During that time, developers are accessing the same production server and deploying different codes into that server. SO I want to capture the computer name & ipaddress of that particular computer, when they access that particular server. Where i can get the logs of the server accessing members. So for the above comments thank u.

What protocol is used when developer deploys code  ?
Is it normal HTTP connection from user's web browser to IIS Server ?

If yes, then look into Properties of web site in Internet Information Services Manager,
and tab "Web Site", button Properties. Here is defined path to log.
