The SEPM database is on a seperate server. I am getting errors on the Application Event Log.

Type:    Audit Failure
Source:    MSSQLSERVER
Event ID:    18456
Event Time:    11/10/2009 9:50:44 AM
User:    n/a
Computer:    Database_Server_Name
Description:
Login failed for user 'SEPM_Account'. [CLIENT: IP_Address]

The account is not lock out. I do not see any logon errors in the Security log. This error is filling up the SQL logs. When I look in the SEPM I do not notice that any data is not updateing. Anyone have any ideas.

I should have mentioned this

I should have mentioned this is my original post. Both the SEPM and SQL server have both been rebooted. Both servers are very current on their patch levels. I have two SEPM's. The databases reside on two seperate SQL servers. The databases are set up for mixed mode authintication. One is getting this error and the other does not.
