Finding an IP address that connected to an IIS Server?

Is there any way to get an external IP address that connected to our IIS
Server? I know the specific time and date. Is there any log file that I can
find this information?

Here's the scoop. We had a laptop stolen from a salesman. On this laptop
is a program called BelManage which reports into our servers once a day with
information on hardware/software change, etc. I have a time and date (after
the laptop was stolen) that this BelManage client reported into our servers.
Unfortunatly, the theif was behind a router (internal 192 ip address)
Shouldn't there be an external ip address recorded somewhere with a time and
date stamp that connected to our IIS server?

Yes. In IIS there is a logging feature. It's probably on (it is by
default). Check the properties of the virtual web in question to find out
the log file path. (Probably %windows%/system32/weblogs/) or similar.
