As stated earlier Runas wont accept the password from the commandline by design. But an alternative would be the SU.exe utility that is in the resource kit utility. Its not on your systems by default, but it will allow you to kick off process under different userids from the commandline.
One other option is to kick of the process with system rights using the AT command. But to work effectly your script needs to run locally. -----Original Message----- From: Roger Seielstad [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 10, 2002 2:25 PM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: Runas Command In theory, you could do: Runas /usr:domain\user "command" <echo "password" That might do it ------------------------------------------------------ Roger D.
