EqualSid info Overview Group

The EqualSid function tests two security identifier (SID) values for equality. Two SIDs must match exactly to be considered equal.

BOOL EqualSid(

PSID pSid1,	// pointer to first SID to compare
PSID pSid2	// pointer to second SID to compare
);

Parameters

pSid1: Points to the first SID structure to compare. This structure is assumed to be valid.
pSid2: Points to the second SID structure to compare. It also is assumed to be valid.

If the SID structures are equal, the return value is nonzero.

If the SID structures are not equal, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

If either SID structure is invalid, the return value is undefined.
