AD accepts either

@Emmanuel, Kiran:
JXplorer makes the same as Apache Directory Studio: It uses JNDI and
JNDI accepts a non-DN as principal. I think we should allow the same
for the new API. WDYT?
I wonder if the LDAP API screams if you use "Arvind n...@domain" as a principal. Blind guess : we expect a DN, and we throw an excpetion if it's not. We can fix that.

In any case, there is no chance that what Arvin used can work, as it's nor a valid DN (ie a full DN), nor a samAccountName. I guess that JExplorer is guessing about the root context to use (ie, it adds cn=Users, ... to the given DN).
