Hi, I've seen lots of posts about this on line, but it appears that no
one ever gets it to work.
I'm trying to open a process, other than mine, and get the username
the process is running as.

I've found .net code which does this via
System.Management.ManagementObject, but it's slow, apparently runs via
WMI, and I'd just rather do it natively.
Taskmanager does it fine.
I'm running as local admin and trying to view the owner of a process
that was spawned with the runas cmd.

Yet I can't. I get access denied no matter what I do. What am I
missing? Why does the wmi work? It's got to be just using winapi
down below anyway, perhaps it's because of the privileges the wmi
service is running as?

Here's my code, mostly copied, I believe via a MS page.
Can someone tell me what I need to do?
I've tried adjusting my token and the other processes.

Would it be easier to just ::CreateRemoteThread and do it the hard
way?

I can't get past the OpenProcessToken when the proc handle is the
handle to the remote process.
I've tried many combinations of access rights.

Here's the current code.


void sysLog( LPTSTR lpFrom )
{
WCHAR s[512]
DWORD dwErr = ::GetLastError()
::ZeroMemory( s, 512 )

if( (FormatMessage( FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM,
NULL,
dwErr,
0,
s,
512,
NULL ) ) == 0 )
{
::std::wcout << lpFrom << L" FormatMessage error ::GetLastError()
was " << dwErr << std::endl
}
else
{
::std::wcout << lpFrom << L" Error: " << dwErr << L" " << s <<
std::endl
}
}

if ( !LookupPrivilegeValue(
NULL, // lookup privilege on local system
lpszPrivilege, // privilege to lookup
&luid ) ) // receives LUID of privilege
{
printf("LookupPrivilegeValue error: %u\n", GetLastError() )
return FALSE
}

tp.PrivilegeCount = 1
tp.Privileges[0].Luid = luid

tp.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED
