One thing I've found is that when mounting shares in an AD network, the 
old syntax of username=DOMAIN/user no longer works, giving the error you
mention.  However, the syntax of username=username at domain does work.

All irrelevant if you're just using username=user as opposed to
domain/username.  

For what it's worth, 4.0.3 seems to have broken AD integration, but I also
seem to be the only one with the problem, so I suspect I'm missing
something.
