Hi all.

I want enable the SE_CREATE_SYMBOLIC_LINK_NAME to a process-token that
install a device file-system on a pc. I would that the program could be
started as standard user on Vista, and then, if needed, it ask to user to
grant the authorization to do the needed things. How can I do?

Thank you.

As witten in the other newsgroup:

Looking at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc234419(PROT.13).aspx
I found that SE_CREATE_SYMBOLIC_LINK_NAME is a privilege introduced in
Vista, but because I was using a Windows Xp platform to develop my
application, the privilege is not present.

What is this "device file-system"?
Windows is not Linux.

Sorry!
I did not want to mix up.
What is the more appropriate generic term for a ramdisk, a memory virtual
disk?

Maybe, just a "virtual disk".

If you need to enable a privilege in runtime, see this
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa446619(VS.85).aspx
or look for other examples for AdjustTokenPrivileges.
