Sorry for horrible look.
Hope this is a suitable newsgroup for this question (previously asked in
students ng).
Instead of asking users for username/password when starting an application.
I would like to integrate security aspect closer to WinXP.
What I thought is creating a security group.
Something close to LookupAccountSid when peUse has the value SidTypeGroup.
Is it feasible and how ?
How can I make an existing user SID becoming a member of this newly created
group ?
Just to clarify my point.
When we want to know to which security groups belong a user we do
something
like (see code below). From there all group memberships are known.
Therefore it would be nice if we could create a security group
with actual usage entirely dedicated to a specific application.
Users would avoid to identify themselves over and
over again since they already did that at boot up time.
Thnks in advance for any suggestions.
