Hi all,

I have written a test program that uses both the GetUserName &
NetUserGetInfo functions.  They both work just peachy on my computer, a
Windows2000 Pro with my account in the local administrators group.  But when
I run that same test program on someone else's computer, I get the
"NERR_UserNotFound" error.

I don't understand why or how this comes up, because they are logged onto
our network.  The documentation for NetUserGetInfo says that "No special
group membership is required to successfully execute NetUserGetInfo. This is
a change from LAN Manager, which required membership in the Administrators
or Account Operators local group..."

Can someone give me a pointers as to where to start trouble shooting?

Thanks,

Randel Bjorkquist
