NetUserDel

The NetUserDel function deletes a user account from a server.

Requirements
Only members of the Administrators or the Account Operators local group can successfully execute NetUserDel on a remote server or on a computer that has local security enabled. Only members of the Administrators local group can delete an Administrators privilege account.

NET_API_STATUS NetUserDel(

LPWSTR servername,
LPWSTR username
);

Parameters
servername
Pointer to a Unicode string containing the name of the remote server on which the function is to execute. A NULL pointer or string specifies the local computer.

username
Pointer to a Unicode string containing the name of the user account to delete.

Remarks
An account cannot be deleted while a user or application is using a server resource. If the user was added to the system through the server with the NetUserAdd function, deleting the user deletes the user's Windows NT system account.

Return Values
If the function is successful, it returns NERR_SUCCESS.

If the function fails, the return value is one of the following error codes.

Value	Meaning
ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED	The user does not have access to the requested information.
NERR_InvalidComputer	The computer name is invalid.
NERR_NotPrimary	The operation is allowed only on the primary domain controller of the domain.
