[Pkg-mono-devel] Out Of Range exception when defining a mutex access rule

[Brett Senior]

I have been trying to create a mutex access rule to add to a mutex security object.  When I execute the following code I get an 'Out of Range' exception that indicates a problem with the line that defines the mutex access rule 'mar1'.

                string user;                
                MutexSecurity ms = new MutexSecurity();
                
                //
                //First create the username that we will use in the mutex security
                //rules.
                //
                user = System.Environment.UserDomainName + "\\" + System.Environment.UserName;
                
                //
                //Now create the mutex access rules and add them to the security object.
                //
                MutexAccessRule mar1 = new MutexAccessRule(
                    user, MutexRights.ReadPermissions, AccessControlType.Allow);
                    
                ms.AddAccessRule(mar1);
     
           
The trace for the exception is as follows:


Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Argument is out of range.

Is the above a problem with my code, or a problem with mono ?
