USER_INFO_1

The USER_INFO_1 structure specifies information about a user account.

typedef struct _USER_INFO_1 {
LPWSTR usri1_name;
LPWSTR usri1_password;
DWORD usri1_password_age;
DWORD usri1_priv;
LPWSTR usri1_home_dir;
LPWSTR usri1_comment;
DWORD usri1_flags;
LPWSTR usri1_script_path;
}USER_INFO_1, *PUSER_INFO_1, *LPUSER_INFO_1;

Members

usri1_name

Specifies the name of the user account. For the NetUserSetInfo function, this member is ignored.

usri1_password

The password of the user specified in the usri1_name member. The length cannot exceed PWLEN bytes. The NetUserEnum and NetUserGetInfo functions return a NULL pointer to maintain password security. By convention, Windows NT limits the length of passwords to LM20_PWLEN characters. This convention allows LAN Manager, Windows 3.x, Windows for Workgroups 3.x, and Windows 95 clients to access a Windows NT server using the account.

usri1_password_age

Specifies the number of seconds have elapsed since the usri1_password member was last changed. The NetUserAdd and NetUserSetInfo functions ignore this member.

usri1_priv

One of three values specifying the level of privilege assigned the usri1_name member. For the NetUserAdd function, this member must be USER_PRIV_USER. For the NetUserSetInfo function, this member must be the value returned from NetUserGetInfo or NetUserEnum. This member can be one of the following values:

Value Meaning
USER_PRIV_GUEST Guest
USER_PRIV_USER User
USER_PRIV_ADMIN Administrator

usri1_home_dir

Points to a Unicode string containing the path of the home directory for the user specified in the user_name member. The string can be null.

usri1_comment

Points to a Unicode string that contains a comment. This string can be a null string, or it can have any number of characters before the terminating null character.

usri1_flags

Contains values that determine several features. This member can be any of the following values:

Value Meaning
UF_SCRIPT The logon script executed. This value must be set for LAN Manager 2.0 or Windows NT.
UF_ACCOUNTDISABLE The user's account is disabled.
UF_HOMEDIR_REQUIRED The home directory is required. This value is ignored in Windows NT.
UF_PASSWRD_NOTREQD No password is required.
UF_PASSWRD_CANT_CHANGE The user cannot change the password.
UF_LOCKOUT The account is currently locked out. For NetUserSetInfo, this value can be cleared to unlock a previously locked account. This value cannot be used to lock a previously unlocked account.
UF_DONT_EXPIRE_PASSWORD Represents the password, which should never expire on the account. This value is valid only for Windows NT.

The following values describe the account type. Only one value can be set. You cannot change the account type using the NetUserSetInfo function.

Value Meaning
UF_NORMAL_ACCOUNT This is a default account type that represents a typical user.
UF_TEMP_DUPLICATE_ACCOUNT This is an account for users whose primary account is in another domain. This account provides user access to this domain, but not to any domain that trusts this domain. The User Manager refers to this account type as a local user account.
UF_WORKSTATION_TRUST_ACCOUNT This is a computer account for an Windows NT Workstation or Windows NT Server that is a member of this domain.
UF_SERVER_TRUST_ACCOUNT This is a computer account for an Windows NT Backup Domain Controller that is a member of this domain.
UF_INTERDOMAIN_TRUST_ACCOUNT This is a permit to trust account for a Windows NT domain that trusts other domains.

usri1_script_path

Points to a Unicode string specifying the path of the user's logon script, .CMD, .EXE, or .BAT file. The string can be null.
