The DsCrackNames function converts an array of directory service object names from one format to another. Name conversion enables client applications to map between the multiple names used to identify various directory service objects. For example, user objects can be identified by SAM account names (domain\username), user principal name (username@domain.com), or distinguished name.

The success of the name conversion request depends on where the client is bound. Clients bind to specific instances of the directory service using some variant of DsBind. If bound to a global catalog, the scope of the name mapping is the entire forest. If not bound to a global catalog, the scope of the name mapping is the domain not covered by a global catalog for that domain controller. If not bound to a global catalog and a name is not found, but the input name unambiguously identifies its domain and this domain is in the forest, then the return data identifies the DNS domain name for the domain of interest. Clients are expected to use this data to bind to the correct domain controller or global catalog and call DsCrackNames again with the new bind handle.
The DsBindWithCred function binds to a domain controller using the specified credentials.

The return value from DsCrackNames indicates errors such as invalid parameters or insufficient memory. However, problems in converting individual names are reported in the status member of the DS_NAME_RESULT_ITEM structure returned for each input name.

Note Do not confuse the values of the format elements of the formatOffered parameter used by the DsCrackNames function with the similarly named format elements as defined in the ADS_NAME_TYPE_ENUM enumeration used by the IADsNameTranslate interface. The two sets of element formats are not equivalent and are not interchangeable.
