Elevated Mode on W2K8 R2
Vahan Elevated Mode on W2K8 R2
 
Doesn't look like the command shell that's launched on W2K8 R2 is in elevated mode.

Is there a way to achieve this?

Thanks much!

Nope, no solution for the moment.
You have to either disable UAC -or- live with its restrictions.

Btw, couldn't even get it to work after disabling UAC in the registry:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System\EnableLUA

if anyone was successful at this, please advise.

Thanks!

This works for me, following the instructions from this page
l0c41://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc709691(WS.10).aspx

This is under the "To turn off UAC" section, do not forget to restart your machine to apply the change.

This is as easy as pie to fix. Add the following after calling ::LogonUser() in the KSession::LogonUser1() method:

DWORD dwLength;
GetTokenInformation(this->token, _TOKEN_INFORMATION_CLASS::TokenLinkedToken, &this->token, sizeof(HANDLE), &dwLength);

Boom! All user logins that are capable of being elevated will be elevated. I have not tested this with users that are not in the administrators group, so I don't know if maybe there should be a conditional around it to check for that first.
