I have a Windows 2000 server on my network, running SQL Server... I've been away from the main office where the server sits and I found there a full system log. Turns out it filled up since Sunday with Log on failure on Account "Administrator". Look like a brute force attempt. Any suggestions to prevent this? I DO have a public static IP for business purposes and have RDP terminal services, SQL server, and VPN ports open. What can I do??

Jump to PostIs that server behind any sort of hardware firewall? If not, it should be.
