sandman Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 (edited) This is a little snippet that I just made. I got the idea from the implementation of something like apt-get called win-get, which was a pretty good idea. Now this is nowhere near as good, but it's somewhere. The bad (and maybe good) thing is that when you use the command, it opens it in a new window. Compile to su.exe and put in "C:\WINDOWS" or whatever for your OS. ; SU ; Become a super-user through CMD!! The 'su' command, kinda, for Windows. #AutoIt3Wrapper_outfile=su.exe Opt("RunErrorsFatal", 0) If $cmdline[1] = "" Then Exit Else $input = InputBox("Su", "Please enter the password for " & $cmdline[1] & ".") RunAsSet($cmdline[1], @ComputerName, $input) Run("cmd") If @error Then MsgBox(0, "Su", "Invalid username or password.") EndIf To use, for example:C:\> su AdministratorAn input box will pop up, asking you for the password. I wish I could make the prompt occur inside the CMD window, but I've no idea how. Obviously I have to put a second parameter there.. because I don't think Windows has a user similar to root by default. This can be used for installing things with administrative levels while on a limited account... or just switching into another account quickly. Happy su'ing! :) (!) (!) (!) (!)

Michel Claveau Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Hi! An alternate way is to use the windows command RunAs (help: runas /?) But RunAs is not develop with AutoIt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebearr Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 Yeah, I would use runas if my intention was to get a command prompt:CODEC:\> runas /user:MyAdmin cmdEnter the password for MyAdmin:This will open the command window as a separate process. The first thing I usually do is run "color 4f" as my first command, just so I can easily tell that this is a "special" command prompt.You might want to also check out MakeMeAdmin. I have long wanted to make an AutoIt version of MakeMeAdmin, but haven't gotten a Round Tuit. BlueBearrOddly enough, this is what I do for fun.

sandman Posted August 18, 2007 Author Share Posted August 18, 2007 I made this because I thought RunAs was a bit too long. And now, since I am a cross-OS guy, I only have to remember one command Also, I've been trying to make a 'sudo' command also, but I've been a bit idle in the programming sense.
