I am currently running WebVPN on a Cisco ASA 5500.
ASA Version: 8.0(4)8
ASDM Version: 6.1(5)
I have a CIFS share setup. I am a Domain Administrator on our 2003 AD domain, and when I log in to the VPN, I click on the CIFS share, and get prompted for my username and password. When I enter the username as DOMAIN\ACCOUNT and my password, I am able to browse the CIFS share.
However, when I have a user that is not a domain admin perform the same task, they get an error "Authentication Error", and cannot access the same CIFS share.
I checked the event viewer of the server, and I see that when a Domain User attempts to access the CIFS share, it is throwing an event ID 529, and the username being passed is anonymous, and not their DOMAIN\Account name.
I have checked both my account, and the other user's accounts, and our primary group is Domain Users.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

This is sounds like it could absolutely be related to CSCsk91498. After instrumenting code I saw the user name being incorrectly parsed and set as the host when there were special characters in the password (I tested with '#'). If you have the # character (or potentially other special characters) in your password this is the same issue. Even if not, the two still might be related.
