Can someone please direct me to complete commandline
syntax (& examples) for the 'RunAs' command?
I need to execute some processes from within the User
Login Script and/or batchfiles which require Administrator
rights while executing under a general User
profile/login. Can the Administrator's 'secret_password'
be concealed in any way, or referenced in another file?
Thanks for help.

Hi

Some Runas wrapper utilities or alternatives that might help you:

In case this is not obvious from the google hits Torgeir provided, NO, you
cannot obscure the administrator's password with ANY kind of reliability if
you are using plain old runas. In fact, don't even think of trying to use it
for your particular purpose.

The other available solutions all have merits, but you had best do a threat
risk analysis before implementing any of them.
