with xp sp1... i got su.exe to work with help of microsoft sending me
a new version of su.exe.
But now i recently upgraded to sp2 and su.exe no longer works. I run
su in my logon script. now i get the error:
GetSidFromNames error! (rc=6)
The handle is invalid.

Any ideas. Thanks in advance.

I cant use runas cause it prompts for passwords. and i tried sanur and
its for some reason shoots my cpu to 99%, so doesnt work. Thanks
again.

Hi

Different RunAs products listed here, some with encryption
options as well:

Another one that is not mentioned in the link above:

LSrunas/LSrunasE (the latter with password encryption)
