I've seen a method before in a MS cmd script (MakeMeAdmin.cmd) for the purpose of temporarily elevating your rights but remaining the same user.
There was a need trick in that the script checks itself on what credentials it runs, if it is not the appropriate one it will call itself again with runas (about the same as sudo) and exits.
If it has the right credentials it will perform the actual task. That might be a way to solve your problem. -- MPH http://blog.dcuktec.com 'If consumed, best digested with added seasoning to own preference.' -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
