Re: Windows Administrator access

You can simply change directory and going into "C:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator".

If you're not administrator, you cannot browse in there. The command prompt
will show the path and this will demonstrate that you're administrator over
there.

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
