Dan T Dan T Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-01-13 Posts: 5 Loc: New York	Hi eveyone, I'm trying to find a way to automate security patch depoyments to my win2k workstations when the local user does not have admin or power user rights on the local machine. I thought that I could use runas.exe when calling the the install for the patch, but I'm not sure how to pass the loacl admin's password to runas.exe. Perhaps this is not possible. Has anyone tried this? Does anyone know of a better approach? Thanks in advance, Dan T

It will install them without the local user being an admin. It's fairly painless to set up and requires that all clients be W2K SP2 or higher.
