[PATCH] mkpasswd.c - allows selection of specific user

[Mark Bradshaw]

It just occurred to me that the patch I submitted for mkpasswd.c causes one
of its error messages to be a bit misleading.  If you ask mkpasswd for a
user that doesn't exist it will say:
"NetUserEnum() failed with error 2221.
That user doesn't exist."

While the error number is correct, and the explanation on the second line is
right, it's not actually NetUserEnum that's been called to determine that.
I don't know if you care about this, but maybe the following patch could be
thrown in to make that error a bit more generic (and correct).
