  There's one thing that I would try if it was me, but I can make absolutely
no guarantee it will work.  After logging in, try issuing a

net use \\127.0.0.1\IPC$ mypassword /user:DOMAIN\grant

  It's a real long shot, but it *might* - just /might/ - get your proper
credentials into the place where they need to be.

    cheers,
