Question:

If I have an application I wrote that executes under Windows login "generaluser", I now want my application in specific scenarios to write a file to a network folder to which "generaluser" does not have write NTFS permissions. How can I accomplish this?

You can go at this several ways and it can get somewhat complicated depending on the route that you take.  Let's first look at spawning an EXE to perform a certain action with different credentials. 

Now if you want to create isolation levels within your assembly, it gets a lot more complicated.  You will have to apply security attributes and configure each client machine that will execute the code.  I am obviously not getting too deep here as this can become a really big tutorial in and of itself, but if you have this need, then a web search would probably be your best best as I ams ure that there are probably already some articles out on CodeProject or something along those lines showing how to do this.

thanks, all I was hoping for was a namespace or starting place from someone who has done this, Google turned up a lot of options. I'll check out what you posted, appreciated as always.
