    Hello,

    I am trying to use the su command which comes with the Win NT resource kit.

    I am trying to run an app with admin priveleges so I need to feed the admin password into the command line so the user cannot see it.

    I know its possible to reference a text file with the password inside but how do I do it?
    No matter what I try I am prompted to enter a password manually.

    Please help me,


    Babaton.
