Problem with remote desktop - IP address being stored in user name

Hi,

I am helping a vista user connect to our terminal server using remote
desktop. The user connects to the IP address our our server (ie.
73.17.31.60). The user name for logging onto our system is first initial and
then last name (jsmith). What the remote desktop is doing is storing the IP
address as part of the user name. It connects properly to our server but the
user name it first tries is 73.17.31.60/jsmith. I get an error stating that
he user name is not correct. I can go in an edit the user name and remove
the ip address and then it works but how do I keep the remote desktop from
adding the IP address in with the user name? The XP remote desktop did not
do this.

Thanks,

Chuck
