If you're using SSPI (Kerberos) authentication, the username you get is coming from your Active Directory username. Kerberos is case sensitive, so KAMIN is not the same as kamin. Windows does something special to make the username case insensitive in normal use. You'll have to go in there and change the your User logon name to lower case. (Account tab in Active Directory Users and Computers, I think, but you can check the actual ticket using kerbtray.) Alternatively, you could try granting permissions using trac-admin instead of the web interface. I did that and it seemed to work, but eventually I decided not to risk breaking Trac and modified my account in AD.
