asked on Tracing IP address of external attack on Windows Server
Say, using software, I am able to ascertain which process and which Port is being utilized in attacking the SQL Browser. I am unable to see the IP address of the attack. What software can I use or logs can I expect or other method, can I use to track down the offending IPs and then block them in the Firewall. I need to keep the Port open for the other software applications that need to access this. Thanks, Shaun

'sqlbrowser.exe' is used to connect clients to SQL "named instances" instead of IP addresses.
