Security Warning: Incorrect implementation of this method can compromise the security of your application. By returning a value of RPC_E_RETRY, users of your application might be exposed to unwanted information disclosure. RPC_E_RETRY should be returned only when the application is running on a known trusted server or after you have verified information from the user.
