A set of Network Management Classes

0.00/5 (No votes)
21 Jan 2002 1  
A set of classes that make it easy to work with Network Management.

Overview

I created these classes to make it easy to work with Network Management. For this I created the CNetDomain class, the CNetUsers class, The CNetGroups class and the CNetLocalGroups class.

The CNetDomain Class

CNetDomain::CNetDomain

Construct a CNetDomain object.

CNetDomain();
CNetDomain(CString strDomainName);

Parameters

CString strDomainName a string that contains the Domain name. If this parameter is empty, the domain where the machine is logued, is used.

Remarks:

If you use the first construct, the CNetDomain class will work only with the machine that it is running, getting and updating the information on it

For Example:

CNetDomain pDomain(_T(""));            //This sample use the domain where 

is logued the Machine...
CNetDomain pDomain(_T("Developers"));  //This sample use the Developers 

domain...
CNetDomain pDomain();                  //This sample use the local 

machine...

CNetDomain::SetDomainName

SetDomainName set the domain name in the CNetDomain object.

void SetDomainName(CString strDomainName);

Parameters

CString strDomainName a string that contains the Domain name.


CNetDomain::GetDomainName

The GetDomainName function returns the domain name in the CNetDomain object.

CString GetDomainName();

CNetDomain::GetPDC

DWORD GetPDC(CString& strPDC);

Parameters

CString& strPDC a buffer receives the server name of the Primary Domain Controller (PDC) of the domain.

Return Value

Returns 0 if was successfully.


CNetDomain::m_strError

Remarks:

The m_strError data member Contains the last error string.
