When passing credentials to Active directory the format is very specific. Under the "Domain Credentials Manager" it must be entered exactly as show for domains.
If fully qualified domains are used you may recieve "access denied" errors.
The following format is an example of right and wrong formats.
Wrong format:
Domain: domain1.mycompany.com
Username: domain1\user1
Password: *********
Correct format:
Domain: domain1
Username: domain1\user1
Password: *********
Be sure to enter the fields with specific NETBIOS domains that are NOT fully qualified in the Credentials Manager.
Domain: domain1
Username: domain1\user1
Password: *********
