Examples

The following code example writes a description for and check the user limit of the file service.

Dim fs As IADsFileService
On Error GoTo Cleanup

' Bind to a file service object on "myComputer" in the local domain.
Set fs = GetObject("WinNT://myComputer/LanmanServer")

fs.Description = "WinNT file service."
n = fs.MaxUserCount
If n = -1 Then
   MsgBox "No limit has been imposed on number of users allowed."
Else
   MsgBox n & " users are allowed."
End If

Cleanup:
    If (Err.Number<>0) Then
        MsgBox("An error has occurred. " & Err.Number)
    End If
    Set fs = Nothing

The following code example writes a description for and check the user limit on a file service object.

HRESULT CheckFileService()
{
    IADsFileService *pFs = NULL;
    LPWSTR adsPath = L"WinNT://myComputer/LanmanServer";
    HRESULT hr = S_OK;
    long count = 0;

    hr = ADsGetObject(adsPath, IID_IADsFileService, (void**)&pFs)
    if(FAILED(hr)) {goto Cleanup;}

    hr = pFs->put_Description(CComBSTR("WinNT File Service"));
    if(FAILED(hr)) {goto Cleanup;}

    hr = pFs->SetInfo();
    if(FAILED(hr)) {goto Cleanup;}

    hr = pFs->get_MaxUserCount(&count);
    if(FAILED(hr)) {goto Cleanup;}

    if(count == -1) {
        printf("No limit has been imposed on the number of users.\n");
    } 
    else {
        printf("Number of allowed users are %d\n",count);
    }

Cleanup:
    if(pFs) pFs->Release();
    return S_OK;
}
