Well, windows can't relinquish the context it is run-as (trivially) without such things as user account passwords and so forth. So, one could say the unixd API is busted ;-) But I wouldn't mind at all if windows emitted a notice that "This server is running as a privilaged LocalSystem user, preventing access to any network file systems (UNC Shares) - you are strongly encouraged to reconfigure the <xxx> service to run-as a more restricted user" and if running in another privileged context; "This server is running as the a privilaged <xxx> user, you are strongly encouraged to reconfigure the <xxx> service to run-as a more restricted user" What happens on unix if started as the same user?
