Description Kyle Kloepper 2007-07-05 14:00:53 UTC 
The usage instructions for entering a domain prefix for a user are:

    [-U|--user [DOMAIN\]USERNAME[%PASSWORD]]

To use a domain requires a forward slash not a backslash. So the usage should be:

    [-U|--user [DOMAIN/]USERNAME[%PASSWORD]]

Unless it is a mistake in the parsing for the user command line parameter.

\ is a valid seperator, but your shell might be using it as an escape character.
Comment 2 Andrew Bartlett 2007-07-17 00:40:49 UTC 
I've changed the seperator in the --help output as you suggest. 

Fixed in svn -r 23912

Thanks!
