[python-win32] WTS user object setup problem using win32com.client

[Larry Bates]

I need to set up users on NT server from information stored in database.
So far I have been successful in creating the User/Password/Comments, etc.
using the win32Net.NetUserAdd functions.  Unfortunately there doesn't
appear to be any way to set the options that I want using that method.

I need to set items that are found in the Environment tab under
User-Properties.
The options are:

TerminalServicesInitialProgram
TerminalServicesWorkDirectory

I found an online article and combined it with some python code I found
that looked like it should work, but it doesn't.  I was hoping someone could
take a quick look to see why this is not working.

Thanks in advance,
Larry
