Sort of obscure reference and I haven’t looked at this tool in a couple of years. To tell you the truth I don’t know if I have ever seen anyone use it in production but Microsoft has a tool called, Eleveated Priviledges Application Launcher (EPAL). The process is documented to allow the administrator to allow normal domain users to gain elevated priviledges during something like and install (I believe, sorry…) and the elevated priviledges are stored in AD…

 

Here is a link to some documentation on it…

 

I appologize if this is way off base but it may be worth looking into.

Hi

I have a user that needs to be able to install software on 2k and xp clients by visiting each desktop.

All of our clients are setup with the same local admin password and do not want him to know that password.

Is this possible?

He is currently just a domain user.

Thank you

Jerry
