Remotely running a PS script in the logged on users context

[SBruening]

Hello,

I want to run a PS script with the following command

([wmiclass]”Win32_Printer”).AddPrinterConnection(“\PRINTSERVERirc5535”)

to connect a printer. For the printer to be usable, this needs to be run in the logged on users context.

Running the command using the PSEXEC “-i” option does not seem to do the trick.

Can anyone help me please?

I think you would have to execute the action with the desired account (the account logged on to the target computer) being used as the ‘Alternate Credentials’ account in BatchPatch or actually launch BatchPatch.exe with that account. Then under ‘Tools > Settings > Remote execution’ specify ‘Elevated token’ instead of ‘SYSTEM’. Then try your command. I can’t guarantee that this will work to do what you want, but it might.
