Description Christian Rose 2004-06-04 10:03:15 UTC 
#: libgnomeui/gnome-authentication-manager.c:288
#, c-format
msgid "You must log in to access %s domain %s\n"

Perhaps a little translator comment
(http://developer.gnome.org/doc/tutorials/gnome-i18n/developer.html#use-comments)
explaining what values the different %s:s get filled in with here would be in
order. I had trouble instinctively realizing it from the message itself at
least, and the source code didn't help much either.
Translators need to know how the %s:s are used in order to translate properly,
and especially in unclear cases like this.

I'd be happy to add one if someone could explain what that code does :-)

Alex?
Comment 3 Alexander Larsson 2006-12-04 08:50:22 UTC 
It'll be something like "You must log in to acces user@server.com/share domain MYWINDOWSDOMAIN."
Comment 4 Kjartan Maraas 2006-12-04 15:09:53 UTC 
Fixed. Thanks.
