The samr pipe is used for managing user and group accounts. For example, connect to a Samba server with usrmgr.exe and watch the traffic using ethereal. > I have seen jCIFS, although in it's current state it > only (AFAICT) supports the access of remote SMB shares.

I just verified this week that Mike is working on rpc support (hey Mike! :-)) but has some more work to do on it before the feature is available in a release. > Aye, already have been looking at it.

The project I'm working on is not OSS at all, let alone GPL. Sorry. Can't use any Samba code in that case. Are we talking about a Unix/Linux application here ? or a Windows management tool for Samba? You would write your client on Win32 pretty easy since the API calls are already there. If you are working on Unix, your only hope is to write your own dce/rpc library or maybe find one that is useable under a license sompatiable with your work. Note that the Samba4 IDL files (not the actual code or pidl itseld) are available for use under more liberal license. You could write your own IDL compiler and use those. cheers, jerry ===================================================================== Alleviating the pain of Windows(tm) ------- http://www.samba.org GnuPG Key ----- http://www.plainjoe.org/gpg_public.asc "I never saved anything for the swim back."
