Hey guys,
i got login to bash shell as SYSTEM account. after loged in i can su to
any user on my system without password.
HOW it starts as localservice
cygrunsrv -I runassys -p C:/windows/system32/cmd.exe -a "/C start CMD.EXE
/K D:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -i" -i --nohide
net start runassys
You are loged in as SYSTEM
The thing is this that i want that 'su' work as it works under UNIX and cron
to execute other users crontab. i think i can be done with perl script.
For 'su', see <http://cygwin.com/faq/faq-nochunks.html#faq.using.su>.
Installing and configuring "openssh" with 'ssh-host-config' and
'ssh-user-config' would allow you to use 'ssh' as a replacement for
'su' in interactive situations.
Installing the "cron" package and configuring it 'cron-config' to run under
a privileged user account (i.e. SYSTEM in your case) would allow it to
execute other users' crontabs.
