Platform Notes
All LanMan APIs are UNICODE only

The NetMessageNameAdd function registers a message alias in the message name table. This function requires that the Messenger service be started.

Security Requirements
Only members of the Administrators local group can successfully execute NetMessageNameAdd on a remote server.

NET_API_STATUS NetMessageNameAdd(

LPTSTR servername,
LPTSTR msgname
);

Parameters
servername
Pointer to a Unicode string containing the name of the remote server on which the function is to execute. A NULL pointer or string specifies the local computer.

msgname
Pointer to a Unicode string containing the message name to be added. The string cannot be more than 15 characters long.

Remarks
The forward action flag from the LAN Manager 2.x NetMessageNameAdd function is no longer a parameter because message forwarding is no longer supported. If the NetMessageNameAdd function detects that a forwarded version of msgname exists on the network, the function will fail with error NERR_Already_Exists.
