Trying to start process with another access token, without success, it runs as the non-impersonated user.
using (WindowsIdentity identity = new WindowsIdentity(token))
using (identity.Impersonate())
{
Process.Start("blabla.txt");
}
How to make this work properly?
You need to set the ProcessStartInfo.UserName and Password properties. With UseShellExecute set to false. If you only have a token then pinvoke CreateProcessAsUser().
Try this example from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w070t6ka.aspx
private static void ImpersonateIdentity(IntPtr logonToken)
{
// Retrieve the Windows identity using the specified token.
WindowsIdentity windowsIdentity = new WindowsIdentity(logonToken);
// Create a WindowsImpersonationContext object by impersonating the
// Windows identity.
WindowsImpersonationContext impersonationContext =
windowsIdentity.Impersonate();
Console.WriteLine("Name of the identity after impersonation: "
+ WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name + ".");
//Start your process here
Process.Start("blabla.txt");
Console.WriteLine(windowsIdentity.ImpersonationLevel);
// Stop impersonating the user.
impersonationContext.Undo();
// Check the identity name.
Console.Write("Name of the identity after performing an Undo on the");
Console.WriteLine(" impersonation: " +
WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name);
}
You can also use CreateProcessAsUser windows function.
