Calling msc via admin account

[CrouchingHippo]

Hi All newbie needing dunce cap here

I have been trying to run diskmgmt.msc via a local admin account,so that non admins can do some disk stuff.

I couldn't get "msc" called, using ShellExecute within the file,

Local $sUserName = "adm_local"

Local $sPassword = "123"

local $sProgramm = ShellExecute("diskmgmt.msc")

RunAs($sUserName, @ComputerName, $sPassword, 0, $sProgramm, @ComSpec)

It didn't work.

So I tried creating an exe file with

ShellExecute("diskmgmt.msc")

and called it disk.exe and it works correctly.

So applying no knowledge at all I tried

Local $sUserName = "adm_local"

Local $sPassword = "123"

local $sProgramm = ShellExecute("disk.exe")

RunAs($sUserName, @ComputerName, $sPassword, 0, $sProgramm, @ComSpec)

I have no output on the screen.

(after copying disk.exe into system folder.)

I know I must be doing it wrong so please be gentle.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Use it like this:

Local $sUserName = "administrator" 
Local $sPassword = "blabla" 
local $sProgramm = "mmc diskmgmt.msc" 
RunAs($sUserName,@ComputerName,$sPassword,0,$sProgramm)

Make sure your user has the right permission, otherwise you will see nothing happen

Bye,

Tim
