Announcing the latest version of Win32::AdminMisc a Win32 Perl
extension that provides administrative (misc) tools.
I have changed the name to AdminMisc to avoid confusion with Hip's
version. It contains the following:
-GetHostName()
GetHostAddress()
gethostbyname()
gethostbyaddr():
Resolve the DNS name or IP address passed to it. If the resolution
was not
successful then it returns 0 otherwise it returns a string. NOTE: DNS
entries are cached in a cache local to AdminMisc. You can set the
cache size and other stuff (check out the readme file).
-GetUserAttributes()
SetUserAttributes():
Same as NetAdmin's versions except that they give you access to
$FullName (the user accounts Full Name entry).
-UserCheckPassword():
Returns 1 if the password is correct.
-LogonAsUser():
Allows you to logon as another user (impersonate the user
account). You can then access (or be restricted by) whatever
permissions that user account has.
-GetLogonName():
Returns the name of the current user of the process/thread.
-CreateProcessAsUser():
Starts a process but under the name of the user you logged on as
via LogonAsUser().
This can be downloaded from:
ftp://ftp.roth.net/pub/ntperl/Win32_AdminMisc_v961016.zip
or
a local CPAN site.
I hope this helps someone out there.
