i'm using psexec to attach to a network pc, and run this command

net localgroup administrators /add "domain\domain users"


this work great, but then the user has to logoff for the admin rights to "show up"

is there a command i can run without having to logoff and log back on?

The user has to open a new session to get the new rights. He could use runas to force a second authentification and launch another app with the admin rights.
