VBscript with "RUNAS" command builtin

[RasmusHolt]

Hi, We have a program that we need to run in the users login script. The program needs to run with adminisrative rights. Is it possible to make a vbscript with a "runas" command with username and password from a user with administrative rights builtin the script. Please give me an example of how a script like this might look.
Thank you.

Can't you use a startup script instead of a login script ?

Hope This Helps, PH.

Hello. I've come across some shareware, non-interactive runas binaries. Also, have put together own custom runas routine with VB calling Win32 API function called CreateProcessWithLogon. It's somewhat involved and if you script it, then be sure not to allow persons to read script where administrative password is stored.

Good luck.
