I have a VB application deployed on a Windows 2000
Domain Server. This application is launched each time a
client logs on to the domain. Client machines are
either 2000 or NT. I do not have any problem with 2000
clients.

I have a VB program, deployed on server, lets say
A.EXE, which will call another VB program B.EXE. B.EXE
has to perform administrative functions on the client
machine. A.EXE is launched when a normal user logs
in. So I need a way to pass on administrative
privileage to B.EXE. I can not use LogonUser()
function since I can not grant 'Act as part of the
operating system' privileage to the user.

Hi,

It seems to be a security grant problem. Try this :

Take the VB exe which needs to execute administrative functions and transform it to a NT4 service with the specific NT Ressource Kit command for it. Make sure that the A.exe doesn't call anymore for B.exe and add a dos command at log on with the Net command to start the service.
