I'm not sure if I understand but if all you want to do is prove you're an
admin just create a file in the system 32 dir. If you want to prove that you
have the administrator password just use the run as command:

runas /user:localmachinename\administrator cmd When prompted, type the
administrator password.
 
Or use the "net" series of commands ie: net user will enumerate all the
local users; or the net accounts command will give you some good info!!

Does this help?

Subject: Windows Administrator access

After gaining shell access to a Windows box, is there any way to show
administrator privilege without changing the config or uploading new files?

I have to demo the ability to gain administrator access to a Win 2000 box,
the catch is no changes on the box so adding a user or loading whoami.exe
from resource kit would not be options. Any suggestion here would be
appreciated.

Thanks
