The problem is this:

I'm not aware of any explicit OS call which allows the process calling
CreateProcessAsUser to drop network credentials of the *caller* in the
child process running under another user token.

In fact, I'm not even aware of any call which allows to drop network
credentials even for the calling process, and that would be the wrong
thing to do anyway.

This is a clear cut case of "I need help" and "Patches gratefully
accepted".
