Login Trigger?

Hi,
I'm looking for something similar to Oracle's login trigger to limit user
connections. I have an application userid that must have read/write/execute
permissions, but other users who should only have read access are logging in
with this user id. This user id is used by a legacy system and no one how
many places the password is hard coded, so changing the password is not an
option.
Is there a way that I can check the hostname of this user on connection, and
if the connection is not coming from an approved host, deny the connection?
Thanks.
Susan
I only know a windows trick MIGHT achieve the effect. You can test this: try
setup the sql server's security policy to only allow certain machines to
login. But if a user login from terminal services or citrix client, you need
to think other methods.
