I'm looking to create a logon trigger to record anyone who uses a SQL login to log onto the server.

Can I just confirm that something like the following will work:


CREATE TRIGGER [AuditLogins]
ON ALL SERVER WITH EXECUTE AS ''
FOR LOGON
AS
BEGIN

SET NOCOUNT ON
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

DECLARE @xml XML
DECLARE @loginType VARCHAR(255)
DECLARE @loginName VARCHAR(255)

SET @xml = EVENTDATA()
SET @loginType = CONVERT(VARCHAR(255), @xml.query('data(/EVENT_INSTANCE/LoginType)'))
SET @loginName = CONVERT(VARCHAR(255), @xml.query('data(/EVENT_INSTANCE/LoginName)'))

IF @loginType = 2 -- This should be a SQL login
      INSERT INTO DBAdmin.dbo.LogonAudit (LoginType, LoginName, Logindate)
      SELECT @loginType, @loginName, GETDATE()

END

My main concern is determining if using a LoginType value of 2 is correct?

Looks like this should have been LoginType = 'SQL Login' as apposed to LoginType = 2.
