The LogonUserEx function attempts to log a user on to the local computer. The local computer is the computer from which LogonUserEx was called. You cannot use LogonUserEx to log on to a remote computer. You specify the user with a user name and domain, and authenticate the user with a plaintext password. If the function succeeds, you receive a handle to a token that represents the logged-on user. You can then use this token handle to impersonate the specified user or, in most cases, to create a process that runs in the context of the specified user.
