问题:

We use NTLM auth in our application to determine whether a user can perform certain operations. We use the IPrincipal of their current Windows login (in WinForms applications), calling IsInRole to check for specific group memberships.

To check that a user is a local administrator on the machine, we use:

AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetPrincipalPolicy(PrincipalPolicy.WindowsPrincipal);
...
bool allowed = Thread.CurrentPrincipal.IsInRole(@"Builtin\Administrators")

This works if the current user is the Administrator user, or is another user that is a member of the Builtin\Administrators group.

In our testing on Windows 7, we have found that this no longer works as expected. The Administrator user still works fine, but any other user that is a member of the Builtin\Administrators group returns false for the IsInRole call.

What could be causing this difference? I have a gut feeling that a default setting has changed somewhere (possible in gpedit), but cannot find anything that looks like the culprit.

The problem is that Windows security (aka "UAC") is getting in your way. There's special handling of administrator roles and your user will not actually have these roles until he is elevated. Admin roles are "ghosted" in a sense: present but unavailable for permission checks or even to (easily) test for presence. See the note at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/46ks97y7.aspx

Here's a series that talks about the issue, with example code that does the necessary workarounds:

I solved a similar problem in an ASP.NET app by building my own UAC prompt and using the name & password to call the Win32 Logon API. You might be lucky enough to be in a .NET desktop app, in which case you can use regular elevation requests.

Here's some C# code to check admin permissions without elevating.

This worked for me - all I needed was to check if the program had been started in an admin role:

   public static bool IsAdminRole()
    {
        AppDomain domain = Thread.GetDomain();

        domain.SetPrincipalPolicy(PrincipalPolicy.WindowsPrincipal);
        WindowsPrincipal principle = (WindowsPrincipal)Thread.CurrentPrincipal;
        return principle.IsInRole(WindowsBuiltInRole.Administrator);
    }

Hope someone finds that of use!

I found another article here on stackoverflow which tackles this another way. I adapted it into a method below. Using Windows 7, this returned true for admins, false for non-admins, and true for non-admin when 'Run as administrator'. It looks like this will only work with .Net 3.5 and XP SP2 and later, based on an initial glance at MSDN for the PrincipleContext class.

private static bool IsUserAdmin()
{
    bool isAdmin = false;

    WindowsIdentity wi = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();
    WindowsPrincipal wp = new WindowsPrincipal(wi);
    isAdmin = wp.IsInRole(WindowsBuiltInRole.Administrator);

    Console.WriteLine(isAdmin); // False for Windows 7 even if user is admin

    //found the code below at [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1089046/in-net-c-test-if-user-is-an-administrative-user][1]  

    // Add reference to System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement (Add Referemce -> .Net)
    // Add using System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement;

    if (!isAdmin) //PrincipleContext takes a couple seconds, so I don't use it if not necessary
    {
        using (PrincipalContext pc = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Machine, null))
        {
            UserPrincipal up = UserPrincipal.Current;
            GroupPrincipal gp = GroupPrincipal.FindByIdentity(pc, "Administrators");
            if (up.IsMemberOf(gp))
            {
                isAdmin = true;
            }
        }
    }
    Console.WriteLine(isAdmin); // True for Windows 7 if user is admin


    return isAdmin;
}

Your application is not elevated. Under normal circumstances UAC strips away the "administrator-ness" of the user. If the app can only be used by admins, add a manifest that causes it to elevate so they can keep their admin-ness. If it can be used by either, your best bet is to partition to two parts, one with an elevating manifest and one without, and launch the elevated part from a button or menu item that is decorated with the shield so users won't click it if they're not admins. (On older OS's the message to put the shield on the button will be ignored.) Searching on "UAC", "partition" and "shellexecute" will be helpful.
