I am attempting to use the RunAsUserAndWait function to execute a process under another account. The job simply stops executing at the point this function is called. I have gone through the debugger and have trace turned on, but it still doesn't get past this point. The Windows 2000 Event log doesn't show anything either. Any ideas?

Do you hold "log on as batch job" privilege?

Yes.

Does RunAsUserAndWait start the specified process? Can you see that process in the Task Manager/Modules tab (the process runs invisible on a virtual desktop and it should not have any user interface)

Does RunAsUser starts the process and return control back to the 24x7?

: Yes.

No, the specified process never starts.
