Well, when I need to run at higher rights, I right click on the SSMS icon and choose Run As .... That gives me a dialog to enter my administrator account and password.

I am installing SSMS and client tools on my Win desktop PC where I
login with my normal domain user account(Win Server 2003).
I've been doing RDP to a server on the same domain which has SSMS and
the SS Engine installed to do SS acivities and maintenance. I have
another domain login account with full SA rights on that instance of
SS that I use to login in that RDP session (Windows login) to then
proceed to login to SS with Windows Auth. with same account.
How do I configure SSMS or connection object on my machine to connect
to the remote SS instance with the higher rights Windows account. My
user account [username] appears in the Connection dialog and grayed
out; I cannot change it to the SA (Windows account) and login to SS
with this.
NOTE: I am aware that I could setup a SQL Server user and authenticate
that way, but our environment does not allow that due to security
protocols. We have to work with Windows Auth. and domain accounts for
SS login.
This seems undoable, but I'm a Win Server and SS DBA newbie in these
things so thought I'd ask.
