Domain Name?

[vb_dba]

How can I return the Domain Name of the network I'm connected to? I've looked for an API for this, but can't seem to find one.

Thanks

Check out GetNetworkParams() -- I did this from memory so check it

long cbRequired;
char *buf;
FIXED_INFO * Info;
long result =  GetNetworkParams(NULL, cbRequired);
if(cbRequired){    
     buf = (char*) malloc(cbRequired);     
     if(GetNetWorkParams(buf,cbRequired) ) == ERROR_SUCCESS)  { 
         Info = (FIXED_INFO*) buf;
         printf("Domain name = ",%s,Info->DomainName);
     }    
}

Do I need to declare the FIXED_INFO datatype? I get an undeclared identifier error when trying to declare Info as that type.

You can declare

PFIXED_INFO Info;
