psexec Access denied

if I run the following from the command line as:
C:\PsTools>psexec -u domain\myUser -p myPassword -i \\remoteServer cmd.exe
it run successfully and it opens the command window on the remote server


if I try to run this same command from an asp net web page from the same
server as :
Dim p As New System.Diagnostics.Process
Dim pi As New System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo
pi.FileName = "C:\PsTools\psexec.exe"
pi.Arguments = " -u domain\myUser -p myPassword \\remoteServer cmd.exe -i"
p.StartInfo = pi
pi.UseShellExecute = True
p.Start()

I get "Access denied" error.

user "myUser" is a domain account, and has administrator privilege on both
servers (the local where the command is issued and the remote server)



thanks for help

RE: psexec Access denied

I got it to work. I was mistaken.
"myUser" did not have an administartor privilege on the source server, then
the "Access denied" error message was coming from the source server and not
the remote one.

now it runs with no error, but nothing happens on the remote sever, I don't
see the command line window neither the cmd process in task manager.

RE: psexec Access denied

Hi Zino,

First, although Microsoft has acquired sysinternals site, the sysinternals
tools are not official supported yet. Anyway, I will try my best to help
you.

What account does your Asp.net process execute? As I know, Asp.net executed
under the network service account by default which does not have enough
permission to call Psexec tool for this task. This is because Psexec tool
needs administrator privilege to install a windows service to perform some
magic task.

I would recommend you to config the Asp.net to run under the local
administrator account to try it again. Also, in the remote machine, you'd
better use Process Explorer to check the processes list instead of Task
Manager, since Process Explorer has a better view for finding process.

Thanks.

Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan

RE: psexec Access denied

Hi Jeffrey,

thank you for your reply.
The Asp.net application is running as :


and I'm the one running the asp page and I'm administrator on both servers.

but to my understanding that by supplying the switch (-u domain/myUser -p
myPassword), the PSEXEC will execute under this supplied account regardless
what the Asp.net process is running under. Isn't that correct ?

Anyway, I solved it by supplying the switch "-accepteula" to PSEXEC, which
made the "notepad.exe" process shows up in the task manager on the remote
server, but I need it to be open interactively on the desktop since I'm
supplying "the "-i" switch, and plus, the PSEXEC process now, stay alive in
memory and I have to use the PSKILL utility to kill it unless you have other
solution to take it out.
(process.Close() is not working)


thank you again

lamentable
Springfield contention. [The Springfield Contention relates to the
settlement of a minister there, which occasioned too warm debates
between some, both pastors and people, that were for it, and others that
were against it, on account of their different apprehensions about his
principles, and about some steps that were taken to procure his
ordination.]

Being much separated from other parts of the province and having
comparatively but little intercourse with them, we have always managed
our ecclesiastical affairs within ourselves. It is the way in which the
country, from its infancy, has gone on, by the practical agreement of
all; and the way in which our peace and good order has hitherto been
maintained.

The town of Northampton is of about 82 years standing, and has now about
200 families; which mostly dwell more compactly together than any town
of such a size in these parts of the country. This probably has been an
occasion, that both our corruptions and reformations have been, from
time to time, the more swiftly propagated from one to another through
the town. Take the town in general, and so far as I can judge, they are
as rational and intelligent a people as most I have been acquainted
with. Many of them have been noted for religion; and particularly
remarkable for their distinct knowledge in things that relate to heart
religion, and Christian experience, and their great regards thereto.

I am the third minister who has been settled in the town. The Rev. Mr.
Eleazer Mather, who was the first, was ordained in July, 1669. He was
one whose heart was much in his work,

RE: psexec Access denied

to me, that
what she gave an account of, was a glorious work of God's infinite power
and sovereign grace; and that God had given her a new heart, truly
broken and sanctified. I could not then doubt of it, and have seen much
in my acquaintance with her since to confirm it.

Though the work was glorious, yet I was filled with concern about the
effect it might have upon others. I was ready to conclude (though too
rashly), that some would be hardened by it in carelessness and looseness
of life; and would take occasion from it to open their mouths in
reproaches of religion. But the event was the reverse, to a wonderful
degree. God made it, I suppose, the greatest occasion of awakening to
others, of any thing that ever came to pass in the town. I have had
abundant opportunity to know the effect it had, by my private
conversation with many. The news of it seemed to be almost like a flash
of lightning, upon the hearts of young people, all over the town, and
upon many others. Those persons amongst us, who used to be farthest from
seriousness, and that I most feared would make an ill improvement of it,
seemed to be awakened with it. Many went to talk with her, concerning
what she had met with; and what appeared in her seemed to be to the
satisfaction of all that did so.

Presently upon this, a great and earnest concern about the great things
of religion and the eternal world, became universal in all parts of the
town, and among persons of all degrees, and all ages. The noise amongst
the dry bones waxed louder and louder; all other talk but about
spiritual and eternal things, was soon thrown by; all the conversation,
in all companies and upon all occasions, was upon these things only,
unless so much as was necessary for people carrying on their ordinary
secular business. Other discourse than of the things of religion would
scarcely be tolerated in any company. The minds of people were
wonderfully taken off from the world, it was treated amongst us as a
thing of very lit

king of this monarchy.

"Now that being broken, whereas four stood up for it, four kingdoms shall
stand up out of the nation, but not in his power.

"And in the latter time of their kingdom, when iniquities are come to the
full, there shall arise a king, insolent and strong, but not by his own
power, to whom all things shall succeed after his own will; and he shall
destroy the holy people, and through his policy also he shall cause craft to
prosper in his hand, and he shall destroy many. He shall also stand up
against the Prince of princes, but he shall perish miserably, and
nevertheless by a violent hand."

Daniel 9:20. "Whilst I was praying with all my heart, and confessing my sin
and the sin of all my people, and prostrating myself before my God, even
Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, came to me and
touched me about the time of the evening oblation, and he informed me and
said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee the knowledge of things. At
the beginning of thy supplications I came to shew that which thou didst
desire, for thou are greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and
consider the vision. Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people, and upon
thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and
to abolish iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness; to
accomplish the vision and the prophecies, and to anoint the Most Holy.
(After which this people shall be no more thy people, nor this city the holy
city. The times of wrath shall be passed, and the years of grace shall come
for ever.)

141. Men spend their time in following a ball or a hare; it is the pleasure

make its possessor happy by the mere contemplation of what he is? Must he be
diverted from this thought like ordinary folk? I see well that a man is made
happy by diverting him from the view of his domestic sorrows so as to occupy
all his thoughts with the care of dancing well. But will it be the same with
a king, and will he be happier in the pursuit of these idle amusements than
in the contemplation of his greatness? And what more satisfactory object
could be presented to his mind? Would it not be a deprivation of his delight
for him to occupy his soul with the thought of how to adjust his steps to
the cadence of an air, or of how to throw a ball skilfully, instead of
leaving it to enjoy quietly the contemplation of the majestic glory which
encompasses him? Let us make the trial; let us leave a king all alone to

RE: psexec Access denied

Hi Zino,

Glad to see you have resolved the problem youself. Oh, it seems that your
problem is caused by the EULA dialog popped up by Psexec.

To tell psexec to terminate immediately after creating the remote process,
you may pass "-d" switch to Psexec.

As I know, the account executing the Psexec tool does matter. "-u" switch
merely "Specifies optional user name for login to remote computer". More
specific, "-u" switch just provides username/password to allow Psexec to
WNetAddConnection2(maybe) API to establish a connection to the remote
machine and launch remote process there. So username/password pair in "-u"
switch is not used on local machine.

On local machine, the Psexec file will create a local windows service to
perform all the detailed real work, so if the running account has no enough
permission, it will fail to install the windows service, so your Asp.net
running thread/process must running with enough permission account token.

Thanks.

RE: psexec Access denied

Hi Zino,

Sorry for the late response. I am out of office these days.

The last reply looks like a spammer robot by some malicious people, since
it is not posted by me. Our team have seen a lot of spams in the newsgroup
these days using our signature and email addresses.

Anyway, you may ignore it. If you need further help, please feel free to
post. Thanks.
