I'm not sure if I understand but if all you want to do is prove you're an admin just create a file in the system 32 dir. If you want to prove that you have the administrator password just use the run as command: runas /user:localmachinename\administrator cmd When prompted, type the administrator password. Or use the "net" series of commands ie: net user will enumerate all the local users; or the net accounts command will give you some good info!! Does this help? -----Original Message----- From: Dillama [mailto:dillama () gmail com] Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2006 2:17 AM To: pen-test () securityfocus com Subject: Windows Administrator access After gaining shell access to a Windows box, is there any way to show administrator privilege without changing the config or uploading new files? I have to demo the ability to gain administrator access to a Win 2000 box, the catch is no changes on the box so adding a user or loading whoami.exe from resource kit would not be options. Any suggestion here would be appreciated.
