    DWORD level,

    LPBYTE buf,

    LPDWORD parm_err 

   );

NERR_UserExists

NERR_PasswordTooShort

Remarks

Server users must use a system in which the server creates a WINDOWS NT system account for the new user. The creation of this account is controlled by several parameters in the server’s LANMAN.INI file.

If the newly added server user name already exists as a Windows NT system user, the useril_home_dir member of the USER_INFO_1 structure is ignored. The NetUserAdd function supports USER_INFO_1 and USER_INFO_2 structures. Using members of USER_INFO_1 initializes default values in USER_INFO_2 and USER_INFO_3 structures.

Subsequent NetUserSetInfo calls can change the default values. The following are possible default values.
