Launching .bat on a remote server. Problems

Hy, everyone, this is my problem-o-the-day:
I have an VB application that launches .bat files (using the SHELL command).
These files are phisically located on a remote server connected via-LAN to the client PC the application run onto.
The problem is that the NT user logged on the client PC is not allowed to access the server (that's due to enterprise security reasons).
So, I would like the VB application launches the .bat passing to the server an authorized user, so that the program can be executed.
(I mean, I would like to know if I can do something similar to a DB connection, in which I pass to the server a SQL user with appropriate authorizations to the DB, even if the LAN user could not access the DB).

I hope I explained clearly the question and thanks in advance to everyone who will reply me.
By, David
