Vista - "Run As" application

Hi.
Can someone please tell me: If i'm an admin on the system, but wants to run
the dsa.msc (For example) as a different user (One which has privileges on
the domain), how can i do this without changing UAC ?

2. How can i run login scripts for now on if i can't use RunAs command
without specifing a password (In other words, automatically) ?

Thanks.

You can still use runas like before, but only from the command line. It has
been removed from the context menu.

I would highly discourage you from using runas in a login script though.
Those are readable to everyone in the domain, exposing the passwords in them
to everyone.

There is a cmd prompt in the menu accessoiries.
You could run that with the option run as administrator and from there do
the needed things!

You can set the properties of a script to run always with administrator
privileges.
Right click and set the properties on the saved script, the only problem
anybody who has access to the PC is then able to run it with the same
settings.

By default, Windows in a domain synchronises to the domain's time - if you
want to synchronise to an external time source, you can add to your group
policy for computers in the domain, to configure and enable the Windows NTP
client (under Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates ->
System -> Windows Time Service -> Time Providers).

Other similar "admin-only" commands that you are executing from your login
scripts are likely similarly supported by group policy settings. Requiring
logon scripts to execute code as administrator is not appropriate.

Alun.

OK, Somboday make an add-in so we can right click and run under other
credentials

Perhaps you don't want to run as administrator simply with different
credentials. Example, specific user created to run exmerge to backup
mailboxes. Admins are specifically denied this right.

Hi

i'm not sure if this will help but have a look at www.dustan.co.uk
there is a backup script which calls a remote script which calls a
runas admin script for remote deployment and installs etc. you could
run the remote script at startup then call the runas admin script
hidden on the network using the $ and set the correct permisions that
no one else could access the directory except the system etc. i use
it all the time on our domain including the backup script for client
computers, i allways hide the folders. Theres is a saying out of
sight out of mind LOL

hope this helps and good luck
