Hi.

 

I'm trying to connect to a remote computer in C++, using

`IWbemLocator::ConnectServer` method. The hosting process has no

permissions to connect, but the current thread is impersonated to a

powerful user. The call fails (error code is 0x80070005). In the

Security Event Log of the remote machine I can find the authentication

request, and the username is the process' user (not the impersonatd

user).

 

I've tried to create a new process (Using CreateProcessAsUser), and

then all works. It's not good enough because I must do it in the

current process.

 

It looks like the problem is in the underlying DCOM layer.

 

Can someone help?
