Send Feedback

This function replaces an existing record set. Windows CE supports the Unicode encoding, as indicated by the *_W suffix.

DNS_STATUS WINAPI DnsReplaceRecordSetW(  PDNS_RECORD pNewSet,  DWORD Options,  HANDLE hContext,  PIP_ARRAY pServerList,  PVOID pReserved);

Parameters

  • pNewSet
    [in] Pointer to the DNS_RECORD structure holding the resource record set that replaces the existing set. The specified resource record set is replaced with the contents of pNewSet.
  • Options
    [in] Options to apply to the operation. The following table shows available options, which can be combined.
    Option Description
    DNS_UPDATE_SECURITY_OFF Does not attempt secure dynamic updates if names cannot be registered anonymously. This is the default setting.
    DNS_UPDATE_SECURITY_ON Attempts nonsecure dynamic update. If refused, then attempts secure dynamic update.
    DNS_UPDATE_SECURITY_ONLY Attempts secure dynamic updates only. Does not attempt anonymous name registration.
  • hContext
    [in] Handle to the credentials of a specific account. This is used when secure dynamic update is required. This parameter is optional. For more information, see the Remarks section.
  • pServerList
    [in] Pointer to the array of DNS server IP addresses to which the Find Authoritative Zone (FAZ) request is sent. Windows CE supports a maximum of one server listed in this parameter. Attempts to specify multiple DNS servers result in failure.
  • pReserved
    Reserved for future use.

Return Values

Returns success confirmation upon successful completion. Otherwise, it returns the appropriate DNS-specific error code as defined in Winerror.h.

Remarks

On Windows CE, this hContext is not obtained by a call to DnsAcquireContextHandle, but is instead a SEC_WINNT_AUTH_IDENTITY_W structure filled with the appropriate settings and typecasted to be a HANDLE.

Security Note   Because hContext might contain a user password, name, and domain information, calling functions should clear hContext when the data is no longer required.

Unlike desktop versions of Windows, Windows CE does not have a registry key that sets the default security in authentication and that is used through DNS_UPDATE_SECURITY_USE_DEFAULT.

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE 5.0 and later.
Header: Windns.h.
Link Library: Dnsapi.lib.
