# uva_check_password_ex

## Purpose

Decrypt the supplied encrypted user and password and then return a value indicating whether the password for the supplied user is valid.

Warning | You must use this interface instead of the uva_check_password interface if you use the SW_DOMAIN or LOGON_OS_LOCATION attributes to specify the location where a user’s password should be validated. See Password Validation on Windows Systems for more information.

## Prototype

    UV_RCODE uva_check_password_ex (
       UV_SH uvsh,
       UV_PSTR pEncrUserName,
       UV_PSTR pEncrPassword
    );

## Parameters

Parameter | Type | Description
uvsh | IN | Session handle
pEncrUserName | IN | Pointer to encrypted VPIU name
pEncrOldPassword | IN | Pointer to encrypted VPIU password

## Return Values

Value | Description
SW_OK | Success
ER_NOTFOUND | Unknown user
ER_HANDLE | Invalid session handle
ER_PARAM | Invalid parameter(s)
ER_SYSTEM | Generic (undefined) error
ER_SECEXPIRED | Password has expired
ER_SECDISABLED | This user account is disabled
ER_SECBADUSER | Unknown user
ER_SECUNKNOWN | Generic (undefined) security error
ER_SECBADPSWD | Password is invalid
ER_SECBADPERMS | Permissions are incorrect for this operation
ER_USERDISABLED | The account has been disabled
ER_SECBADWKSTN | Login/Validation is not allowed from this location
ER_SECBADHOURS | Login/Validation is not allowed at this time
ER_SECLOCKOUT | The account has been locked

See Return Values for a complete list of possible return values.

## Remarks

This interface is an extended version of the uva_check_password interface. It is identical to that interface except that it supports the passing in and out of user location information from the SW_DOMAIN user attribute and/or LOGON_OS_LOCATION process attribute. See Password Validation on Windows Systems for more information.
