Adding Users and Setting Flags

Keywords:   wntAdd

---

Question:

I'm trying to add some users in NT. I'm using the Network extender and everything seems to be working fine EXCEPT the flags... I can add the user and only one of the two flags I want. It won't add "cannot change the password" AND "don't expire password."

Here's a sample. What am I doing wrong and how can I fix it?

AddExtender("WWWNT34I.DLL")
wntUserAddDat("name", "Manager")
wntUserAddDat("full_name", "Manager")
wntUserAddDat("flags", 1)
wntUserAddDat("flags", 64)
wntUserAddDat("flags", 65536)
wntUserAdd("")
wntMemberSet("","Administrators","Manager",@LOCALGROUP)

Answer:

You only need to set the flags element once, as follows...

AddExtender("WWWNT34I.DLL")

wntUserAddDat("name", "Manager")
wntUserAddDat("full_name", "Manager")
wntUserAddDat("flags", 1|64|65536)    ;this sets all three flags
wntUserAdd("")

wntMemberSet("","Administrators","Manager",@LOCALGROUP)
