I need to install a backup software to client's computers using an logon script. All my users is a Power User in the Windows 2000 Professional.

My problem is the backup software need a Local admnistrator rights to install into the Client's machines.

How can I install the software through logon scirpt using a administator rights? What is the command to use?

RUNAS is what you need to do. From the login script, put in:

RUNAS /user:YOURDOMAIN\ADMINISTRATOR setup.exe

In addition to answer 1 I think you'll still need to have the users provide a password for this admin account. I think it prompts you for it.
