Dear Experts, Can someone provide an example of how to use CreateProcessWithLogonW?
I am having some issues with the subprocess module and how it interacts with win32security.ImpersonateLoggedOnUser. Specifically, I use the latter to change users but the new user does not seem to be properly inherited when I spawn further subprocesses. I am doing something like import win32security, win32con handle = win32security.LogonUser( user,domain,password,win32con.LOGON32_LOGON_INTERACTIVE, win32con.LOGON32_PROVIDER_DEFAULT) win32security.ImpersonateLoggedOnUser(handle) Then spawning subprocesses but the subprocesses cannot read the same UNC paths that that the parent could. I believe the problem is because the subprocess module calls CreateProcess but CreateProcess does not inherit what ImpersonateLoggedOnUser does. I believe using CreateProcessWithLogonW may solve the problem but am willing to try other alternatives. Any advice on either spawning subprocesses which inherit parent user properly or changing users in a better way on Windows would be greatly appreciated.
