Re: [BackupPC-users] Different Domains Backup

[Josh M. <jo...@wo...>]

You probably don't have to. If the user name and password match up, 
regardless of the domain, it is usually accepted.

This is from my experience with the smb tools under linux. Also I have 
had windows machines be able to access other domains if there exists a 
username and password identical on both domains, without any prompting 
required. It's really handy when you want to have an XP Home box access 
the domain, just create a local user with the same user/pass as on the 
domain.

Try it out without the "DOMAIN\", and report back to the list whether it 
is a success or not.
