 Re: Incorrect password or user Admin is not known on the database As the log files tells you, the user is trying userid Admin. Check if this ID exists on ur unix box. To get a list of IP's and stuff from where people login using telnet or any other protocol, ask ur sysadmin on unix to log all activity. ( sysad can restrict users via inetd.sec file ) Some of the commands which might help you - last -R , lastb -R , netstat ( you can run these yourself ) - check in informix log, the approx time when this person tries this and before that time, start a script with netstat or later check with lastb/last ( last commands will help u only in case of telnet - in other cases - if u have tcp/ip connection set for informix, netstat might help ). Hope this helps.

| Re: Incorrect password or user Admin is not known on the database Actually, I saw this once before. It's some MS aberration where it tries to log you in as user Admin if there is something wrong with your ODBC, or Access or something. I can't remember the details, but then I can't remember my address either. preetinder dhaliwal wrote: > As the log files tells you, the user is trying userid Admin.
