How can I execute this code to grab immediate administrator privilages
for the domain user account without log-off the current session. Can we
have any such chance to optain quick admin rights for the current domain
user without log-off the system. Waiting for the adequate solution to
this problem & It will be more appreciable..

Thank You

The best solution depends on the context of how you are going to run the
script. If you are going to run it interactively while logged on with an
account not having admin rights, you could use runas.exe, but you would need
to supply the name and password of an account having the required rights.

If you want it to run automatically in the logon script, for ANY user who
might log in (but who, for obvious reasons, has no knowledge of admin
privs), you would need to use one of the available "runas" utilities that
allows you to embed the admin credentials (see RunAsPro, Sanur.exe, and
CPAU.exe). You would also need to take steps to make it difficult for
someone to use the embedded (and encoded or encrypted) credentials for other
purposes.

Mind you, in either case the user would still not actually enjoy the
privileges of "power user" group membership until the next time he logs on.
If you still need to do something in the current session that requires
elevated privs, then that could be done with runas or one of the utilities
listed above.
