Hi All.

Could you please help me?

I need to display standard dialogbox - "Select Users or Groups" to
choose a user account (usually domain user account, but not always -
local user accounts could be used too).
So, user should choose a user account and click [OK] then my
application saves name (or SID) of selected user account in remote
database.

Selected user account here is not related to any object in Windows
(like file or anything also), it is just a user account to be enabled
to login to a system (not Windows). In other words - want to make
Windows users login to non-Windows system. Idea is - administrator
selects a number of user accounts enabled to login to a system (non-
Windows), these user accounts saved in database, then (when login)
users submit own account name to a system, it makes select from db and
see if this account enabled to login...

Everithing is working ok, expect selecting user account, I want to
display standard dialogbox but dunno how to do this...

I dig out MSDN but unfortunately have not found any such API. :-(
I'm trying to experimenting with EditSecurity function from AclUI.dll
but seems it is quite complex and I'm not sure if it will really
display the dialogbox I need?

If you have any ideas on this, could you please share with me?

Regards,
Dmitry.

Hi - you'll probably have more luck if you post in a dev group. This is for
admin/usage issues.

Can you recommend suitable dev group?

Sorry, I don't know. One for your programming language, I expect. If you use
msnews.microsoft.com as your NNTP server you can view/subscribe to all / any
of the MS public newsgroups.
