This question is third on a series. Thanks to Gonzalo and Mattias S for helping me work out the kinks of calling NetUserModalsGet()
from C#. This question, unlike the others, isn't really C# specific -- I think.
Here's the working code with which I can call NetUserModalsGet()
from C# on a remote machine. It works well, but according to the documentation usrmod1_primary
and usrmod2_domain_name
should give me the address of the domain controller, and the name of the domain the machine is a member of.
Instead, I get a blank string for usrmod1_primary
and the machine name for usrmod2_domain_name
-- it's as if the machine isn't in a domain. Am I looking for information in the wrong place?
