Hi All,

Using CDO and MAPI I discover whole exchange server.
My program runs as a NT service.
If I start service under administrative privileges then everything works
fine.
However, if I start service in local system account and impersonate
administrator user then

1. MAPI call IMsgServiceAdmin::ConfigureMsgService fails with an error
0x80040115 (network error).
2. CDO call ADsGetObject fails with an error 0x80072020 (An operations error
occurred)

I did not find any concrete documentation on CDO and MAPI impersonation.

Can anybody please help for the same ?

Regards,

Dipak.

Dipak,

You may want to have a look at Steve Griffin's bog entry on MAPI / CDO and
impersonation. Steve has some great info on this whole topic:
