Members

Remarks

The client can specify the credentials to use when creating a shell on a computer. The user name should be specified in the form DOMAIN\username for a domain account or SERVERNAME\username for a local account on a server computer.

If this structure is used, it should have both the user name and password fields specified. It can be used with Basic, Digest, Negotiate, or Kerberos authentication. The client must explicitly specify the credentials when either Basic or Digest authentication is used.
