That would probably work on the client side, but if you did it on the
server it would just break it.

I guess eclipse uses its own client (or a version of the cvshome.org
one) and the problem is at the server side.

The rules that the server uses for checking users are:

If the server is not part of a domain, only local users on the server
are checked.
If 'Use local users instead of domain' is set, the above is true also.
If a domain is not specified, the server checks users on its local
domain only.
If you are using cross-domain logins, a trust relationship must exist
between the two domains (sufficient to do LsaEnumerateAccountRights on
the remote domain).  I think this must be bi-directional trust (which
is what we use here) but you might get away with less.
