I realize this was OT, so sorry about not changing my Subject line. But thanks for everyone's help - making my server admin account a local admin did the trick!

Yes, it will work, but not 100% consistantly in my experience. I have gotten inexplicable "domain\computer (10.1x.1x.1x) User is not an administrator on the scanned machine" errors using runas where the hostname resolved to a bogus IP address. -----Original Message----- From: England, Christopher M [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2003 8:51 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] MBSA & Runas Greetings all, I am trying to get MBSA to run within another user context so I can scan my servers from my own workstation. If I am an admin on the server, I can of course do the remote scan with no issues. However, on most of my servers, another user account is used to administer them. If I do a runas with MBSA, and try to scan the remote computers, it cannot even find them. Any ideas? Anyone tried this and gotten it to work?
