>What operating system are you using, and what userid was used to attach the networked resource? I did see that Win98 returned my domain ID for anything other than null, which returned my local Windows login; NT seems to behave as per the documentation in the MSDN, but Win9x is not behaving as expected it seems.

Why local and non-existent connections are returning any value without an error doesn't make sense.

Running Win95 (4.00.950B) in a NT-server environment. I have no local windows login and all network devices are connected using my normal network userid.
Don't spend too much time on this on my behalf, as I don't have any immediate need for this function. Just a little curious, though...
