I just realized this, so to clear things up, I don't think you understand how cached credentials are meant to be used... you can't 'cache' local credentials in that way (you can't cache local credentials in any way, if I'm thinking right)
Cached credentials are merely for situations where a DC is not available, so the password entered is checked against the local cache of domain credentials (the # of logins cached is set via group policy) You want it to be where you don't have to enter a password at all, which is not how it's meant to work. You're barking up the wrong tree. Sorry I don't have a solution, but I thought I'd at least mention that you won't get what you want with cached credentials and 'runas'...

Specifically, we have one script the enables and disables our VPN network adapter (not the client - the actual adapter) - this one we do use an admin account. I'm sure there is a local security setting to allow non-admins to do this but I'd like to limit it just to this particular adapter. The other one is a REALLY poorly written remote DVR viewing app that needs read/write to c:\ but only the root so we created a special user that only has those permissions. I don't really want the standard user who browses the web to be able to drop stuff at the root of c:\. I just don't get why it's looking for a DC if I explicitly say it's a local account. - Andy O. >-----Original Message----- >From: Ben Scott [mailto:[email protected]] >Sent: Tuesday, May 12, ... >On Tue, May 12, 2009 at 1:53 PM, Andy Ognenoff <[email protected]> >wrote: >> I've got a couple applications that we have regular users run (non-admin) >> that require elevated privileges ... > > Have you tried hitting the apps in question with LUA Bu... >~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ >~ < http://www.sunbeltsoftware.c... ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
