Server Functions

The server functions perform administrative tasks on a local or remote server. The server functions are:

• NetServerDiskEnum retrieves a list of local disk drives on a server.
• NetServerEnum lists all visible servers of specified types in the specified domain.
• NetServerGetInfo retrieves information about a specified server.
• NetServerSetInfo sets the operating parameters for a server.

Any user or application with admin group membership on a local or remote server can perform administrative tasks on that server to control its operation, user access, and resource sharing. The low-level parameters that affect a server's operation can be examined and modified by calling NetServerGetInfo and NetServerSetInfo.

You can examine and modify certain low-level parameters that affect a server's operation, defined in the server's LANMAN.INI file by calling the NetServerGetInfo and NetServerSetInfo functions. The NetServerEnum function lists all visible servers of specified types in the specified domains. Most server category functions execute only on a remote server. The NetServerEnum function can execute on either a local workstation or remote server, but all other server category functions executed on a local workstation return NERR_RemoteOnly.

The server-specific information is available at the following levels, starting at base level 100:

SERVER_INFO_100
SERVER_INFO_101
SERVER_INFO_102
SERVER_INFO_402
SERVER_INFO_403
SERVER_INFO_502

The server information levels available in LAN Manager 2.x are no longer available in the Net functions. However, the following structures are supported on LAN Manager 2.x systems:

SERVER_INFO_1005
SERVER_INFO_1010
SERVER_INFO_1016
SERVER_INFO_1017
SERVER_INFO_1018
SERVER_INFO_1107

For NetServerSetInfo, parmnum values refer to the members of the SERVER_INFO structures as follows. These values are used when indicating an error in a specific parameter through parm_err.
