i believe the GUI will DEFAULT to use Local Users to the server, and you explicitly need to select domain. annoying, for sure.
so if i search for mydomain\lowell, it does nto exist in the scope of the local machine, hence the error.
note the "From this location" has the machine name, and not the domain
