where are undocumented interfaces ..

We are trying to get group policies to work with our client. However, there is no documented method for our client to pass group information to POLEDiT.EXE. When we looked at the GROUPPOL.INF and GROUPPOL.REG files, it became obvious that there is some interface that we are not aware of, which has not been documented.

The GROUPP0L.REG file sets a value under the Network Provider key:

[KKEY-LOCAL-MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NWNP32\NetworkProviderj

the value is:

"GroupFcn’=’GROUPPOL.DLL, NWGetUserGroups"

I assume this tells GROUPPOL.DLL which entry point to call to get the group and user information.

How can we implement this? Where is it documented? Is this function supposed to implemented in the Network Provider? It’s not documented anywhere in the Network Provider spec.

Any documentation you could give us on the interface between POLEDIT.EXE, GROUPPOL.DLL, and the Network Provider DLL would be appreciated.

Thanks,
