does scp take windows type: domain\username@ip ?


Running that cygwin sshd  under XP, I can get scp to copy to my local PC 
from a Linux box just fine for local users like admin

scp test.sh Administrator@myIP

the above works fine and puts test.sh into /cygwin/home/Administrator

I cant seem to get scp to work for authenticated users from a domain eg:

If I try myDomain\myUsername@myIP the \ is stripped off and the copy fails 
as shown below
 (swri16\jstateson)

Bringing up the Event Viewer I read where sshd reports
Failed password for invalid user swri16jstateson from 129.162.164.124 port 
2002 ssh2

if I try two backslashes \\ the following error:

Failed password for invalid user swri16\\jstateson from 129.162.164.124 port 
2033 ssh2

a forward slash is no better

So is it possible to use a micro$oft type domain\username when copying from 
a linux box not on the domain to a windows PC on the domain?


..thanks in advance..
