Is there any reason why Windows integrated is being used instead of Basic?
It seems to me switching to basic would fix the problem.

If Windows integrated was chosen because Basic passes passwords in plain
text, I'm not sure Windows integrated is necessarily that much more secure,
depending on how your computers are set up and whether they are using the
default settings.

I would think the code in that Microsoft article would still work... you
might need to change the variable names, possibly, not sure.
