Remarks

The account is initially created with user credentials and no service logon credentials. The caller can pass in LSAAPI_ADMIN (0x10000) or LSAAPI_SERVICELOGON (0x20000) or both to create the account with administrator or service logon credentials or both.

For accounts with trusted domains, the pAccountDomain and pLocalServer parameters should reference the domain and server in question. The trusted domain name, if present, must be removed from the account name. That is, do not submit an account string of type domain\user.
