Granting A Program Network Administrative Rights?
Dec 3, 2009
Consider a network environment with a domain and active directory setup. I would like to create a shared folder on a server for a username added by whom ever the network administrator is... I would like to install my program on a computer, but when people log into te local machine, I don't want them to have access to the shared folder, I want the program to be able to access it only, using the afore mentioned user name and password.

I have a vb.net application that copies files from a folder to another (SQL Server DBs). When I test this project from Visual Studio 2008, which is being run as "Run as Administrator", it works fine. But when the project is deployed, this project gives error "Access Denied" The folder is locked.

What type of coding requires administrative rights? Does deleting files or copying files or using the shell / system.diagnostics.process.start()

I want a sure-shot method to test if the application was run via the UAC box and has full administrative rights. Earlier, I thought of making a folder in C:Windows for testing but running it on other computers proved to be a failure!
The UAC box provides all administrative rights to the computer to do anything(including making folders and creating files in places which needs there rights) and also makes sure that any child program so called or created also does have the same rights as the parent.Is there a sure-shot way to test if my application has been provided all the administrative rights that I can maximum get by the user while running the application or not? If yes, I would be glad to have to piece of code-work!

I want to know what rights the user has for a given folder on a network drive. But I can't find anything that does just this.
I have used DirectoryInfo.GetAccessControl and DirectorySecurity.GetAccessRules, etc. to get a collection (AuthorizationRuleCollection) of rules. But that gives me all the access groups and their rights. I don't need that (I guess I can see if I can find code that gets which returns the security groups for the current user and then compare those to the collection, but this seems awkward.)
Or I can write code that tries to create a file, delete it, etc. which is easy to do, but not quite accurate (if the user can't create a file, how can I see if the user can delete one, if the user has create, but not delete rights, I get a bunch of temp files, etc.)
All I need to know is if the current user has read write, read only, create, and/or delete rights to a given folder (and I guess file might also be nice - I would assume similar code.)
I have to believe that its a really simple thing. But Googling it and searching on the forums here didn't turn up much (unless I want code to change the users rights - which I don't.)

how to elevate privileges when my program executes code through command prompt. My program will already prompt for administrator access when it is launched. This is the code from my manifest file that will allow it to prompt for UAC admin permissions/credentials (to elevate permissions)
VB .Net 2010

My.Computer.FileSystem.DeleteFile(My.Computer.FileSystem.CombinePath(My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.ProgramFiles, "Myprogramfile.txt"))But when I try this it will only work when the program runs with administrator rights. Is there a way to let the program work this way that no administrator rights are needed, or that the program may only boot up as administrator? So they won't be allowed to boot it up without administator rights. (I do not mean to force the administrator, but only to let them press "accept" or "cancel" in the UAC pupop

I am writing a program that is going to copy files from one server to another but I need to provide the user name and password in order to avoid receiving the Access to the path "..." is denied error. I have the username and password but where would I put it in my program in order to get access.For example I am using the Directory.GetFiles( string ) command to list the files of the directory. What do I need to add to it so I can get access?

Here is my idea so far: I have a bunch of computers connected in a local network. One of them is a MySQL server, one will have a vb.NET program wich will act as a "second server" and the rest will be different clients. What I want to do is that the "second server" will send out some kind of message or network package to some of the clients in the network, and they will execute a code based on what message it is, or what kind of package it is. I'll give you a simple example:

I want to use netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=YourVirtualNetworkName key=YourNetworkPassword
in my Vb.net application which requires administrative privilege in Windows 7. Each of the time I have to click "Run as Administrator" from the executable files context menu to execute the file. Is there coding anyway so that I can open the program with Administrative privilege?

I have developed some programs for processing and issue-coding electronic documents. I am teaching myself how to work with SQL Server because I want these programs to work with electronic documents imported into SQL Server as opposed to messing around in a folder stuck on the desktop, for example. From there I want to expand on the program so that it is a network enabled program.

I have my program that runs from a workstation and the SQL DB is on the SERVER.I am having a lot of problem with it as the VB.NET program wont refresh the dataset.I would like to test the same by putting the SQL DB on a network drive, and run the program from another workstation.Just to narrow down the problem.My Question is this. I install the SQL DB on machine A and then install my program on Machine B?
What should I do to get Machine B to access the SQL DB on Machine A.Will sharing the SQL FOLDER be good enough for my program to access the DB of course, I have to modify the connection string on my program, but other that is there anything more to be done.

I have written small a software. I want to install it on a server and and make it accessible for all the other users on network.
How can I retrieve the server name (the computer program installed) with .NET?
Also, sharing the "Program Files" folder doesn't look like a smart idea for making the program accessible from the other computers.

I am not new to programming but have little experience and am trying to learn VB 2010.
We have HP Procurve network switches and I know that with a telnet application I can login to the switch and it will tell me which MAC address is connected to which switch port. Im trying to write a computer inventory program to track my computers and it would be really cool if I could figure out how to determine which computer is plugged into which port on the switch. Problem is that I have no idea how to go about doing that.
Is this anything anyone has tried before or does anyone know how to go about doing it?
Ive been hunting on line but havent found anything useful so far and thought Id ask here in the off chance someone knows what Im talking about.

I am playing with network sockets as I need to work on a client-server application. So I have tried this simple code from VS help:
Code:
Dim tcpClient As New TcpClient()
'The following line do not belongs to original code 'But I needed to add it as debugger told me that 'I couldnt getStream from closed sockets
tcpClient.Connect("127.0.0.1", 8000)
Dim netStream As NetworkStream = tcpClient.GetStream()
If netStream.CanWrite Then
[code]....
So, I supposed that the code above would write the message to the loopback IP (127.0.0.1), it would be kept in the network buffer and would be spited out when it readed the same loopback IP. However, when it gets the line whre it should read the stream, the program just stalls and keep reading it forever. I have tested the stream with as if it was just awaiting for something to read. I have tested the stream with getStream.DataAvailable and it returned me False, what makes me guess that the data is NOT being properly written to the IP.
Firstly I thought that it could be something with the loopback IP, then I tried to provide the machine local IP (192.168.2.25) but I got the same behavior: code stalls...
