-
DWORD R_DhcpSetDnsRegCredentials( [in, unique, string] DHCP_SRV_HANDLE ServerIpAddress, [in, string, unique] LPWSTR Uname, [in, string, unique] LPWSTR Domain, [in, string, unique] LPWSTR Passwd );
ServerIpAddress: The IP address/host name of the DHCP server. This parameter is unused.
Uname: A pointer to a null-terminated Unicode string that contains the user name for the DNS credentials.
Domain: A pointer to a null-terminated Unicode string that contains the domain name for the DNS credentials.
Passwd: A pointer to a run-encoded, null-terminated Unicode string that contains the password for the DNS user name.<53>
Return Values: A 32-bit unsigned integer value that indicates return status. A return value ERROR_SUCCESS (0x00000000) indicates that the operation was completed successfully, else it contains a Win32 error code, as specified in [MS-ERREF]. This error code value can correspond to a DHCP-specific failure, which takes a value between 20000 and 20099, or any generic failure.

Description
0x00000000
ERROR_SUCCESS
The call was successful.
The opnum field value for this method is 43.
When processing this call, the DHCP server MUST do the following:
Validate if this method is authorized for read/write access per section 3.5.5. If not, return the error ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED.
Run-decode the Passwd parameter to convert it into the original clear-text form.<54>
Store the information provided in Uname, Domain, Passwd fields into the corresponding fields in the server ADM element DHCPServerDnsRegCredentials.
Remove the old DHCP-DNS registration, as specified by the [MSDN-FreeCredentialsHandle] function. If the removal succeeds, register the DHCP server credentials with DNS as specified by the [MSDN-AcquireCredentialsHandle] function. Return ERROR_SUCCESS, whether these registration APIs fail or succeed.
