Hello,

I want to run some program under 'NT Authority\Network Service'
account. My system is Windows 2003.
I tried to use 'runas' command, by it asks me for password... What
password does 'NT Authority\Network Service' account has? This is
system account, I didn't specified its password and has no idea how to
get it.

Is it possible to run something under this account and what way to do
it?

I actually want to run it from script, so 'runas' is not the good
solution.

I also has cmdasuser utility that allows me to run program under local
system account, but similarly I did't succeed to run it under 'NT
Authority\Network Service' account.

Thank you
