Login failed for user <<domain>>\<<server name>>$

am working on asp application which basically is an interface to the report server. I am currently unable to determine the source of the problem so it may have nothing to do with reporting services.

Currently the back in off this application consists of a reports and web server on a machine named tango and a SQL database server on a machine named tango.

The SQL logs show a failed login for user organization\polo$ (organization is a made up domain as i don’t what to give away where I work). There is no logon in SQL for the user polo$ and as far as I can see there is no user polo$ in the domain.

Has anyone seen this before? Can anyone account for the user polo$?

Thanks in advanced
