Set the dial-in setting for an active directory user account. This function
is used for remote access permissions to be explicitly allowed, denied,
or determined through remote access policies.
This action is typically used in a script that is intended to create
new user accounts or manage existing user accounts. The user account,
for which the dial-in setting should be set, is identified by two properties
(User account and Domain Controller). To execute this action successfully,
these two properties must have a valid value. Different settings can be
applied to increase the security. Dial-in options should always be set
as secure as possible.
