 AH>> logon username /p:password /d:domain /v:d
 DR> is the /v the domain?  Just verifing :>
/V specifies the verification mode, and can be NONE, LOCAL, or DOMAIN.  See 
the OS/2 Warp Command Reference for details, but briefly NONE means no 
verification, LOCAL means that your username and password are verified 
against your local user database (so you must exist as a local user), and 
DOMAIN means that they are verified against your domain controller's user 
database.
The difference between /V:Local and /V:Domain is the difference between "File 
and Print Client Logon" and "LAN Server Logon".
Incidentally, as long as the local username and password are the same as your 
LAN username and password, you can create yourself as a local user, log on 
with local verification, and OS/2 will automatically handle presenting your 
credentials to the appropriate servers automatically whenever you make a 
connection.
