Connecting remotely as Administrator
« on: June 19, 2014, 06:24:13 »
Wondering how I can quickly connect to another computer as an administrator? ie connect to \\computername\c$ and browse files on that system.
Have searched and tried various things, but can't seem to get it working..
Thanks, John.

If the share exists and you have permission for it.. just enter the path in the commandline field or path field.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, realise that if my current logon gives me access (ie same authentication as I am currently using), that I have access, but if there is different access on the remote machine, how do I logon. ie something like: \\john@192.168.0.2\c$ (often used in linux etc) or something similar.
Or, if you currently don't have access, pop-up an authentication dialogue....? Asking too much?
Thanks.

It does ask if it know that the case. But in many situations it does not know that it is a authentication issue
