[cvsnt] User reported as DOMAIN\user also on default domain (2238)

[Bo Berglund]

I have updated my CVSNT server to build 2238 now and I found that I
did not get any emails anymore on my commits.
It turns out that the server does *not* handle the default domain as
was expected.

I have set the default domain as the *computer* name (since there is
no real domain in use, the W2K server is just in a workgroup).

I then use a CVSROOT from another PC like this:
  :sspi:user at server:/repo

When I do a commit the $USER variable on the loginfo line still
expands to SERVER\user and now this cannot be found in the users file
since it is organized as user:email and there is no domain designator.

Last week when I struggled with the pserver authentication after
upgrading the production server to 2151 I used the default domain
setting to make CVSNT supply the user only (without DOMAIN\ in front)
and it worked fine. I did not check sspi for this.

Question:
Is there a difference that makes pserver respond to the default domain
setting but not sspi?

Or is the default domain setting only applicable to *real* domains
such that if the server is in a workgroup the DOMAIN\ part is *always*
tacked on?
