creating an mmc and opening with domain admin privileges on vista
I am trying to setup an mmc in vista that allows me to run it as my domain admin account. In XP all I had to do was create the mmc and save it and run a little batch script with the runas command. Here is little batch script I used runas /profile /env /useromain\myadmin "mmc c:\downloads\supermmc.msc"However when I run this against the new msc I created in vista is does not work. By the way I did in install the Remote Admin Tools for Vista. So now all I need to get to work is the ability to run this as my domain admin account. This allows me to stick with MS best practices of not having my local user as a domain admin. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
