Hi,
  there are two way. Use domain username/password or use single sign on.

To use domain username/password just specify the domain in your
username. Something like "DOMAIN_NAME\\user_name" with your domain
password. Could be that you have to use ntlm version 2 (see
documentation).

The other option is to use Kerberos or on Windows SSPI. The trick is
to specify empty strings for username and password. SSPI is used (and
available) on Windows and will use your logged on user while on any
other machine you have to setup Kerberos and login (kinit usually)
before launching your dblib application.
