| | Switch user credentials using powershell Hi, Is there a way to switch user credentials in powershell script? The reason I want to do this, the script needs to access a network share that only domain administrator can, but I don't want to login as domain administrator just for the purpose of running the script. TIA |

| | Re: Switch user credentials using powershell right-click on PowerShell icon -> Run As... (for XP/2003), or Run As Administrator in Vista and higher. However there is one problem, that you cannot specify particular account name to launch program (only Administrator is available). To solve this you can use ShellRunAs: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/s.../cc300361.aspx -- WBR, Vadims Podans MVP: PowerShell PowerShell blog - www.sysadmins.lv "Danny Ni" <dndn@xxxxxx> rakstija zinojuma "news:#$Eq$GJ3JHA.5728@xxxxxx"...
