Why would you expect that the username/password from the old domain
would work on the new domain? Had you established a trust relationship
between the two domains? Or had you created a user account on the new
domain server with the same login name and password as those of the old
domain? That won't work, as user account login names as nothing more
than conveniences for us carbon-based life forms - the computer and
domain server actually use the Security Identifier (SID) for
authentication, and each SID is unique, even if the two accounts have
the same login name.
