RunAs with elevation and encrypted credentials « stichl.at

http://stichl.at/2013/10/runas-with-elevation-and-encrypted-credentials

RunAs with elevation and encrypted credentials. As most of you know Windows UAC can be a real pain in the a* . My problem: We use software where an additional tool is included to switch the license type (network vs. standalone). This tool saves it's settings to the HKLM registry hive and our users do not have admin privileges so we need to think about a solution. We need to run just this tool with local administrative privileges, but without asking the user for any credentials. Search for lsrunase.zip.

DFS quota Management the easy way « stichl.at

http://stichl.at/2014/01/dfs-quota-management-the-easy-way

DFS quota Management the easy way. This week I migrated some older Windows 2003 DFS servers to newer machines running Windows 2008R2. Just DO NOT ask me why I'm not using 2012 or 2012R2, thanks! In the past we have been using the old style NTFS volume quotas to stop our users from storing every bullsh*t on the servers. They needed to request another 5GB whenever they ran out of disk space. When one user's quota value changed it has to be modified on each DFS server - stupid work! We also placed the VBS-s...

Grep -oae [0-9] .[0-9] .[0-9] ./kernelfile. Operating on more files looks like this:. Grep -oae [0-9] .[0-9] .[0-9] ./vmlinuz-*. Subscribe to comments on this post ). Leave a comment Cancel reply.
