Check the lpServiceStartName parameter of CreateService()[^]. Make sure this user has access to to required network resource.

But a service starts executing before a user login to the system. So you have to say to the system, under which user account the service should be run, this should be done while the service is created/registered to the system. CreateService() is the API to Create/register the service with the system and lpServiceStartName & lpPassword are parameters through you say to the system, under which user account the system should run your application as service.

Is LogonUser() what you are looking for?
