Domain

Applies To: Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Vista

Domain specifies the domain name of the account used for authentication. If the account is not a domain account, then the computer name should be used instead of the domain name. For example, if a computer named SYSTEM1 is connected to the FABRIKAM domain, then you can specify credentials in one of the following ways:

• FABRIKAM\User_Name and the User_Name account password. In this case, the value for the Domain setting is FABRIKAM.

• SYSTEM1\User_Name and the User_Name password on the SYSTEM1 machine. You can use any account on the system. In this case, the value for the Domain setting is SYSTEM1.
