runas with msc files.

| | Comments (1)

We're doing some messy migration testing at the moment to get users from our existing windows2000 domain into a brand new 2003 domain. As I'm logging on as a different user I need to still run my daytoday admin apps when a phone call comes in. Unfortunately I was having problems trying to run my customised mmc console that has all my admin tools built in.
When running Runas /user:domain\username andys.msc Iwas getting the error message "RUNAS ERROR:   Unable to run - andys.msc 193: Not a very useful error.
After some trial and error, running runas /user:domain\username "mmc c:\pathname\andys.msc" it worked. You must include the full path (.\andys.msc doesn't work)

On a side note, bloggar (which I'm using to post this file) can be run using runas /profile /user:domain\username wbloggar.exe" from the c:\program files\bloggar directory. You don't need the full path in this instance but you do need the /profile switch otherwise it will ask you to setup a blog account.
