Wrong password on Windows 2008 R2 (Domain Controller)

Hi,

I installed the latest release and everything works if I connect on a pc running Windows 7 PRO or XP PRO.
When I try to connect to a server running Windows Server 2008 R2 (configured as Domain Controller but with NLA disabled) through RDP, the server login window correctly appears but after I typed the password I always get the error "invalid username or password" eventhough the password is correct.
If I connect to other servers with Windows 2008 R2 but not configured as domain controllers then I'm able to access and it doesn't ask for login.
Is there some issue with a server configured as a Domain Controller?

Regards,

Roberto
 
Through RDP.
Anyway I found out the problem: only with domain controllers (and NLA disabled, I haven't tried with it enabled) I must specify the username as "domain\username" otherwise the domain controller replies with "username or password invalid" (or something like this, I don't have the english localization).

Best regards,

Roberto
