If I use su.exe to open a command prompt and then do a
continious ping, I'm not able to break out of it. Control
C does nothing and control break doesn't stop it either.
I've fooled around with the su and cmd switches but
haven't had any luck. Does anybody know what the problem
is?

Thanks,

Chad
 
Yes, and the problem with runas is that it will not
accept passwords that are piped into it. This script is
more like a dashbord. When you first open it it asks you
for the password to your admin account and stores it as a
vairable. Then you get a menu with a list of applications
that require admin rights to run. You select an option
from the list and it pipes the admin password to su and
opens the app. This prevents my team mates and I from
having to continiously type in the password to our admin
accounts.
