Winnt/95 authentication

Winnt/95 authentication

[Ian Collins]

Is there any way of authenticating a password against windows nt server
domain security in gnu-win32?

I have written a network service (similiar to telnetd) that I want to
have authenticated before it will accept a connection.

The PC it will run on will be either winnt or win95, and I want the
program to authenticate a supplied password against domain security.

Any ideas anyone?


Many Regards,

snippet from Sergey's patch to login.c:

============================

HANDLE hToken;
char *username;
char *pp;		<=- password

	if (LogonUser(username, NULL, pp, LOGON32_LOGON_INTERACTIVE,
		LOGON32_PROVIDER_DEFAULT, &hToken))

============================

returns:
	nonzero success
	zero failed

 Try starting by entering URL
http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/goprem.asp?TARGET=/msdn/library/
 and then navigate 'SDK Documentation'->'Windows Base Services'->Security.

If you have a MSDN library CD handy, you can access the same information,
just faster.

Regards and good luck

I don't know the answer, but I've got two cents to put in on this one. It
would be great if getpwnam() and its related functions worked. This would
be a great path towards authenticating on Win95/WinNT while still keeping
Unix-sh ties.
