Well, I've spent the last two or three hours trying to get Dave's utility to work and I've gotten nowhere. With runas.pl, I get a "Failed to Logon" message. I've also grabbed pieces of 5 or 6 scripts from the mailing list archives that used logonasuser() and those either give me "Incorrect Function" or "A Required Priviledge is not held by the Client." I've tried with domain and local accounts, and given these account local admin on the server and the three specified advanced user rights. So I guess I'm totally stuck at this point. Does anyone have a copy of a working script, plus info on whatever else had to be set up to get it to work?
