CTypes wnetaddconnection2

[Matthias Janes]

I have one question about the usage of "CTypes"
 
I have some scripts using the "Mark Hammond's win32all"
win32all-153.exe extention.
 
I would like for certain reason to use the CTypes module.
Could not figure out some things - maybe you could help me - with some
kind of hints.
 
 
 

1. FIRST get Remote Access to a PC : parts of my script at this moment
 

#!/usr/bin/env python
#________________________________________________________________________#
#
# BEGIN: get privileged user access to Pc
#
 
 
 
import win32net, win32netcon, win32wnet
 
IP = "10.199.61.3"
 
LocalName = None
RemoteMachine = "\\\\" + IP
ProviderName = None
 
win32wnet.WNetAddConnection2(win32netcon.RESOURCETYPE_ANY,LocalName,RemoteMachine,ProviderName,"PrivilegedUser","PrivilegedUserPassword")
 

#
# END:get privileged user access to Pc
#________________________________________________________________________#
 

CTypes so far:get privileged user access to Pc
 
MS-INFO:
 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wnet/wnet/wnetaddconnection2.asp
 
DWORD WNetAddConnection2(
  LPNETRESOURCE lpNetResource,
  LPCTSTR lpPassword,
  LPCTSTR lpUsername,
  DWORD dwFlags
);
 
MS-INFO END!
 
 
 
#!/usr/bin/env python
#________________________________________________________________________#
#
# BEGIN: CTypes: get privileged user access to Pc
#
 
import ctypes
 
IP = "10.199.61.3"
 
LocalName = None
RemoteMachine = "\\\\" + IP
ProviderName = None
 
RESOURCETYPE_ANY = 0x0
 

a=ctypes.windll.mpr.WNetAddConnection2A(RESOURCETYPE_ANY,LocalName,RemoteMachine,ProviderName,"PrivilegedUser","PrivilegedUserPassword")
 
#
# END:get privileged user access to Pc
#________________________________________________________________________#
 

GET error:
 
ValueError: Procedure probably called with too many arguments (8 bytes
in excess)
 

I'm not sure - do I have to make for the  'lpNetResource'
 
DWORD WNetAddConnection2(
  LPNETRESOURCE lpNetResource,
  LPCTSTR lpPassword,
  LPCTSTR lpUsername,
  DWORD dwFlags
);
 
something like a Structure and how would this be ???
 
class RECT(Structure):
    _fields_ = [("upperleft", POINT),
                "lowerright", POINT)]
                
                
Thanks for any help.
 
regards,
