Runas for specific function

[fortage]

I'm new to C#.net and am attempting to wirte an app that will allow a user to take ownership of folders/subfolders and reset permissions on them. I would like the function that takes ownership to run as an account with admin writes. Is this possible? Any examples would be helpfu.

I would figure out how to do this via command line first. Once you can do it in commandline you can do it from C#.

Simply start a command line process and send the requested information to it.

I can use subinacls.exe and xcacls to do it from the command line but would prefer not shelling out.

Look up "Impersonation"

I use it to ensure my app (and only my app) can access files in a protected folder regardless of user.

I would post my code, but it is quite long.

You can probably find it all on the Internet, but I would be happy to email it to you, if you want.
