Event Log Location ->
The Event log settings can be configured in the following location within the Group Policy Object Editor:
Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Event Log\Settings for Event Logs

Solution for admins ->
Prevent local guests group from accessing event logs

The Prevent local guests group from accessing event logs setting determines if guests are prevented from accessing the application, security, and system event logs.

The possible values for this Group Policy setting are:
Enabled
Disabled
Not Defined
Note This setting does not appear in the Local Computer Policy object.
This security setting affects only computers running Windows 2000 and later.
Vulnerability

An attacker who has successfully logged onto a computer with guest privileges could learn important information about the system by viewing the event logs. The attacker could then use this information to implement additional exploits.
Countermeasure

Enable the Prevent local guests group from accessing event logs setting for the policies of all three event logs.

TSE log connection in the event log, but in Win2k he don't log IP for example but name of the workstation.

In win2k3 the log have the IP of the workstation.

The client printer who is by default mounted to the server are logfged too

See ya,

Terminal server also has a Terminal server manager on win2k/2k3,

they can view your connection to see what your doing and even take over your session.
