LookupAccountName
The LookupAccountName function accepts the name of a system and an account as input. It retrieves a
security identifier (SID) for the account and the name of the domain on which
the account was found.
BOOL LookupAccountName(
LPCTSTR lpSystemName,
| // address of string for system name
| LPCTSTR lpAccountName,
| // address of string for account name
| PSID Sid,
| // address of security identifier
| LPDWORD cbSid,
| // address of size of security identifier
| LPTSTR ReferencedDomainName,
| // address of string for referenced domain
| LPDWORD cbReferencedDomainName,
| // address of size of domain string
| PSID_NAME_USE peUse
| // address of SID-type indicator
| );
|
|
Parameters
lpSystemName
Points to a null-terminated string specifying the system. This string can be
the name of a remote computer. If this string is NULL, the account name is
looked up on the local system.
lpAccountName
Points to a null-terminated string specifying the account name.
Sid
Points to a buffer receiving the SID structure that corresponds to the account name pointed to by the lpAccountName parameter.
cbSid
Pointer to a DWORD variable. On input, this value specifies the size, in bytes, of the Sid buffer. If the function fails because the buffer is too small, this variable
receives the required buffer size.
ReferencedDomainName
Points to a buffer receiving the name of the domain where the account name is
found.
cbReferencedDomainName
Pointer to a DWORD variable. On input, this value specifies the size, in bytes (ANSI version) or
characters (Unicode version), of the ReferencedDomainName buffer. If the function fails because the buffer is too small, this variable
receives the required buffer size, including the terminating null character.
peUse
Points to a SID_NAME_USE enumerated type indicating the type of the account when the function returns.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
The LookupAccountName function attempts to find a security identifier for the specified name by
first checking a list of well-known SIDs. If the name does not correspond to a
well-known SID, the function checks built-in and administratively defined local
accounts. Next, the function checks the primary domain. If the name is not found
there, trusted domains are checked.

Nostalgia .Net |

.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
