part of a domain, enter the username in one of the
following styles: user@domain or domain\user.

Zone settings are set correctly using Web Based
Management or the control panel so the machine
matches the time being used by the server providing
the authentication.

password for the Kerberos server. For more information on
the Kerberos server settings, contact your network
