It is possible to log in as domain/username, using
NWClient ver 4.83 by entering a domain name in the
advanced tab, windows tab. The domain entered does not
have to exist if NDS credentials are used for
authentication, but the Domain name shows up in the
Windows security box dialog, is persistent across reboots,
and is passed as local credentials by the Citrix ICA
client. Where is this domain data stored, and is it a
bug? It is usefull for single sign on, since it can allow
logging in to a windows server that is a member of a
domain without the workstation being a member of the
domain, but could be seen as a security risk. The risk
should be small, since the credentials do have to match.
