RE: VOIP Security

[Locher Thomas <Thomas.Locher () swarovski com>]

Dear List,

we are trying to work out a policy, that every admin should be logged on to
his client (WinXP-SP1) with a non-administrative account (smartcard logon)
and start the programs for administrative tasks with the runas - command as
admistrator. That works rather good, the account cannot access our
fileservers and all the other things that can be compromised by a worm or
virus.
There's just one problem, you can't start windows explorer with runas. We
use the internet explorer  (runas with the administrative account) for
managing file servers, but this is rather bad (for example there is no
automatic refresh). Is there an alternative to windows explorer with the
same features? The few i found cannot access the network by typing UNC
Paths, only with mapped drives - they are more useful for local usage.

Best regards,
Thomas
