I had a scene wherein I had to write to a file in a network location outside the domain using a domain Id.
The regular values for LogonUser() didn't work for me. So I changed the values for Cross Domain access.
This is the snippet that was different:
enum LogonType
{
Interactive = 2,
Network = 3,
Batch = 4,
Service = 5,
Unlock = 7,
NetworkClearText = 8,
NewCredentials = 9
}
enum LogonProvider
{
Default = 0,
WinNT35 = 1,
WinNT40 = 2,
WinNT50 = 3
}
LogonUser(
userName,
domain,
password,
(int)LogonType.NewCredentials,
(int)LogonProvider.WinNT50,
//LOGON32_LOGON_INTERACTIVE,
//LOGON32_PROVIDER_DEFAULT,
ref token) != 0)
Here is my complete code:
