Creating an MS cluster and add multiple nodes to the cluster, the cluster creation goes through fine and the first node gets created.

When adding another node to the cluster an error is displayed.

Resolution

The scheduled changes done as part of this bug fix are:

1. Supporting the lookup of computer names which comes as part of tgs requests and the name is without '$'.

2. Password change for the cluster node was failing with access denied error is part of this fix.
