Open remote pipe with specific username and password?

Finally found a solution myself.

If you already have a connection to the remote machine with a particular user name and password, then the pipe will try to use the same user name and password. This can be achieved with 'net use':

>net use \\server\IPC$ /user:username password

The programmatic way to do this is using the WNetAddConnection2() function. So the full solution is to call WNetAddConnection2() with the required user name and password, then open the pipe in the normal way.
