When remotetype is UPM_LOCAL or UPM_DOMAIN, the user ID and password are verified immediately against the existing users. When remotetype is UPM_DNODE, the user ID and password are verified on the attempt to attach to the remote node.

UPM_FL_LOCVER specifies local verification for the user ID and password; UPM_FL_NOVER specifies no verification; and UPM_FL_DOMVER specifies domain verification. The remotename must be NULL if either UPM_FL_LOCVER or UPM_FL_NOVER is specified.

If flags is 0, the verification for the UPM_DOMAIN remotetype logon is the type specified by the wrkhueristic parameter number 3 in the IBMLAN.INI file.
