Unfortunately that is a really ugly can of worms that you aren't
likely to find a ready-made solution for in any language.
The only option that really works is to use the Windows NT 3.5
security APIs in C, but those require you to manually
marshal/unmarshal the data structures to/from flat buffers
yourself.
Windows NT 4 introduced some additional API functions that would
have been easier to use, but they were never implemented correctly,
at least up through and including Windows 2000. I can only assume
that Microsoft stuck with the NT 3.5 security APIs for use in their
own software.
