In 2008, the events to look for are 4740 and 4771. This has changed from 2003.
We use netwrix identity management suite for this. It sends automated reports on all failed logon attempts and it says real-time alerts of all account lockouts—it’s a helpful tool that I can recommend. Download it from www.netwrix.com
Thanks for sharing your problem related to failed logon attempts and account lockouts. I have also faced this problem. I tried this active directory auditing (http://www.lepide.com/lepideauditor/active-directory.html) that helps to audit details on User Logons and Logoffs for different operational requirements and audit specific logon events, logon activity.
Great, In this article the concept is very clear and helpful. It describes most valuable information related to audit active directory failed logon I found nice information related to this from http://www.esystool.com/know-how-to-track-ad-user-logon-and-logoff-activity/ which get reports and alerts on anomalous logon activity and account lockouts.
