I agree it doesn't make sense and it's all Microsoft's doing...
By the way, do you know why LookupAccountSid() returns different
values when the sid is impersonated and when it isn't. Like:
In impersonated token created in a process launched by Phumblet
/******************* Token User */
PHumblet WIRELESS SidTypeUser <==== ?????
S-1-5-21-2127391503-1594901184-99485923-1004 <==== impersonated sid
the (account) name PHumblet doesn't match the sid's username here.
It would if the process was launched directly by the user
(instead of being impersonated).

What you do is essentially the same as what I tried, except you
put the sa, sd and dacl in a contiguous memory buffer. My code
(which also didn't have any effects) was using pointers from sa to sd
and from sd to the dacl (thus spread in 3 different memory blocks).

Instead of debugging DuplicateTokenEx() it may be simpler (but
less efficient) to set the sd DACL in seteuid(), after the
call to ImpersonateLoggedOnUser(). That's essentially what
my call is doing when NULLing the DACL (see previous mail).
It would also take care of the subauthentication case.
I haven't looked at that at all.

Yes, but perhaps not before Monday.
