probe content check using Active directory credentials

Hi.

I'm having an issue with getting a HTTP probe to do a content check on a Sharepoint 2010 front end.

I have the following probe configured:

probe http TCP-HTTP-Status-Check

  description "Test HTTP request to Portal Page"

  interval 5

  passdetect interval 30

  credentials domain01\spfarmadmin password

  request method get url /default.aspx

  expect status 200 200

But when the probe runs I get an error code 401 in the probe details:

 

HQ-ACE1/Sharepoint2010# sh probe TCP-HTTP-Status-Check detail

probe       : TCP-HTTP-Status-Check
type        : HTTP
state       : ACTIVE
description : "Test HTTP request to Portal Page"

A 401 means an authorization issue with the account to use for the credentials but this seems to work fine when I do it manually. 

Is there an issue with my config or the way the ACE uses an AD user (domain\user) format for the credentials?  Or something else?

Thanks.
