You haven't asked anything about the C language, thus your
query is not topical here. You're asking how to using
networking in Windows. The C language has no support for
networking or operating system specific features.
C is a platform-independent language.

Your issue is documented at www.msdn.microsoft.com
If you're still stuck, visit newsgroup:
microsoft.public.win32.programmer

Read the messages there before you post, it's very likely
your question has already been asked and answered there.

That's no problem. Just encode the NetBIOS header (easy, only 4 bytes),
then encode the SMB header (harder, 32 bytes), write that to a socket,
repeat the process for SMB_COM_NEGOTIATE, SMB_COM_SESSION_SETUP_ANDX,
SMB_COM_TREE_CONNECT_ANDX, then open a TransactNamedPipe to IPC$, then
encode and issue the SMB_COM_TRANSACTION for the DCE/RPC bind request
(UUID 4b323fc8-1233-34r3-2393-asdfasdf00), read the bind ack (note you
need full multi-part transactions for this because RPC PDUs can span
multiple SMB buffers), and finally issue the SVRSVC NetShareEnum RPC. Now
do everything in reverse to read the response.

Good luck,
Mike

This is the problem with replying to off-topic questions. The Windows
API offers a much simpler solution.

I think you should spend some time on rec.humor Mike.
