just use the cluster resource name to login. If you hit the browse button it should search the LAN for all db servers and select from the list :-)

 

then once it's logged in, on the left tree menu right-click databases select create :-)

 

note this is from memory, will confirm on 08 cluster in about 8 hours :-)
