Vista only works with pre-Windows 2000 AD Logon name?

Yes, DNS the proper DNS suffix is assigned to the client and working. It's
not about the file share access using the file share name, it's about the
authentication.

In Vista, the AD fileshare logon prompt only works with, for example,
"Domain\jsmith" instead of "john.smith@domain.com" however
"john.smith@domain.com" works fine in XP.

This is something I can bring up later with my premier support for Microsoft
but I figure I'd see if this was a known issue first. My searches in the
Knowledge base and searches find nothing.

Thanks for the attention in this matter.
