Confused about Windows AD logon name

Hello,

I am trying to access Windows AD by JNDI and I can authenticate by:
(algorithm is "Simple")
1. UPN, such as, username@...
2. DN, such as, cn=username, ou=member,dc=company,dc=com
and also with
3. RDN, such as, cn = username

Here is my problem.
The last type logon name(RDN) doesn't work with "Administrator".
I mean, I can authenticate with user principal as "cn=foo" but cannot using
"cn=Administrator".
It seems that Administrator account is special.
I want to know why?

I had tried to find some specification about Windows 2003 AD logon name but
result with nothing.

And I'd very appreciate any information on this problem.

Best regards,
Tetsu
