Subject: Windows 95 Group Policy Support
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,
