RPC_S_UNKNOWN_IF means "unknown interface".  I assume this error has
nothing to do with AuthzInitializeContextFromSid(), but with the
AuthzInitializeRemoteResourceManager() call.

What I failed, though, is to find a working example for
AuthzInitializeRemoteResourceManager().

As I said in my previous posting, maybe we don't really need
AuthzInitializeRemoteResourceManager().

We can safely assume that the current user is already authorized on the
SMB server.  So... shouldn't AuthzInitializeResourceManager be
sufficient and the code from class authz_ctx already does what we want?
We may just have to use in in place of calling NtCheckAccess(),
maybe with a tweak or two...
