[ACCEPTED]-The best way to resolve display username by SID?-sid
Accepted answer
Just found it on the pinvoke.net.
Alternative Managed 1 API: Available in .Net 2.0:
using System.Security.Principal;
// convert the user sid to a domain\name
string account = new SecurityIdentifier(stringSid).Translate(typeof(NTAccount)).ToString();
The Win32 API function LookupAccountSid() is used to find 3 the name that corresponds to a SID.
LookupAccountSid() has 2 the following signature:
BOOL LookupAccountSid(LPCTSTR lpSystemName, PSID Sid,LPTSTR Name, LPDWORD cbName,
LPTSTR ReferencedDomainName, LPDWORD cbReferencedDomainName,
PSID_NAME_USE peUse);
MSDN Ref.
Here's the 1 P/Invoke reference (with sample code): http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/advapi32.LookupAccountSid
[DllImport("advapi32.dll", CharSet=CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
static extern bool LookupAccountSid (
string lpSystemName,
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.LPArray)] byte[] Sid,
StringBuilder lpName,
ref uint cchName,
StringBuilder ReferencedDomainName,
ref uint cchReferencedDomainName,
out SID_NAME_USE peUse);
