    LPTSTR  ui1_remote;
    LPTSTR  ui1_password;
    DWORD   ui1_status;
    DWORD   ui1_asg_type;
    DWORD   ui1_refcount;

}USE_INFO_1, *PUSE_INFO_1, *LPUSE_INFO_1;
 

Members

ui1_local

Specifies a Unicode string that contains the local device name (for example, drive E or LPT1) being redirected to the shared resource. The constant DEVLEN specifies the maximum number of characters in the string.

ui1_remote

Points to a Unicode string that specifies the share name of the remote resource. The string is in the form

\e\eservername\e\esharename

 

ui1_password

Points to a Unicode string that contains the password needed to establish a session with a specific workstation.

ui1_status

USE_PAUSED	Paused by local workstation.
USE_SESSLOST	Disconnected.
USE_DISCONN	An error occurred.
USE_NETERR	A network error occurred.
USE_CONN	Connection is being made.
SE_RECONN	Reconnecting.

ui1_asg_type

Contains values that determine several features. This member can be any of the following values:

Value	Meaning
USE_WILDCARD	Matches the type of the server’s shared resources. Wildcards can be used only with the NetUseAdd function, and only when the ui1_local member is a null string.
USE_DISKDEV	Disk device.
USE_SPOOLDEV	Spooled printer.
USE_CHARDEV	Communication device.
USE_IPC	Interprocess communication (IPC).
