First of all, interesting/nice response!

I have Windows Server 2008 R2 (hosting tomcat7/tomee, which is running my
java/JSF web app), but I currently do not have the server
on-or-connected-to any domain (at the moment, and currently there is no
need/requirement for it to be connected to the current Windows domain on
the network); my Windows Server 2003 R2 server is currently (and has
been...for years) running as the domain controller on the network. So, my
Windows Server 2008 R2 server is currently not configured to test this and
provide test results.
