Luke,

I checked with "System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name" and in fact I do have the DOMAIN\USER combination that I expected (a user that is a memeber of the administrators group).
I eve andded this user to the Act as part of the operating system key in Local Security Policies.

I am still geting the same ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED 5 (0000005) err msg.

Do you have any suggestions?

Luis
