That's weird.  I never saw that happen with the -d/-D option.  Especialy
because mkpasswd -d/-D doesn't rely on any user name, it just asks the
domain controller to list the domain accounts using the NetUserEnum
function, and NetUserEnum is not documented to be able to return
error 2221 (NERR_UserNotFound) at all.  Are you running this under a
domain account?
