Beginner question about Security Management

[ddeerr]

Hi all,

It seems that in the security functions it is possible to edit Permissions on registry Keys, i said "it seems" because i cannot test most of them due to a lack of uderstanding.

For example :

_Security__AdjustTokenPrivileges($hToken, $fDisableAll, $pNewState, $iBufferLen[, $pPrevState = 0[, $pRequired = 0]])

I don't understand where to get $hToken and $tagtagTOKEN_PRIVILEGES ($pNewState in definition) and i know that's because i don't know what is it, i suppose it's some kind of link to registry, or system access ?

Same in _Security__LookupPrivilegeValue($sSystem, $sName) as i don't know exactly what is it it tried :

_Security__LookupPrivilegeValue("", "Full Control"); for registry on default system ?

or

_Security__LookupPrivilegeValue("", "Read"); for file(s) on default system ?

i know it's incorrect because it's always 0 for result.

I found no help in forum or AutoIt help about that, is there someone that can quickly explain to me about that ?

thanks
