title: WNetAddConnection2 from a Windows Service
body: <p>I'm trying to connect to a remote password protected shared folder from a Windows service, which runs as LocalSystem account. It seems that the LocalSystem account is unable to directly access password-protected network shares using WNetAddConnection2() or similar calls.
  Can anyone confirm this?
  I've read that impersonating an administrator user might be the way to go.
  I've tried using LogonUser() and ImpersonateLoggedOnUser() before WNetAddConnection2(), it appears that the mount of the network path succeeds, but then actual accesses (e.g. enumerating of files in remote folder) fail.
  Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
