Hi Ron,
I have tried the command in the format you suggested, which works on the local LAN but fails when used via a modem/PPP connection, even though DNS is working to locate the server. When investigated the command appears to ignore the domain value and uses the servers workgroup.
Cheers,
Brian

If you're in an NT domain don't forget the domain name then a semi-colon
then username...I couldn't figure it out-then someone named Iwan taught

that tidbit on the OS X AppleScript Discussion Area.
Hope that helps,
