Hi
After trying all the day to start a process as root i think there is a litle
bug, this code below should start xterm as root user after yu will enter the
good password in the code (this code work great under windows if yu start
notepad as administrator) :

                Process VBmProcess = new Process();

                VBmProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "xterm";

                VBmProcess.StartInfo.UserName = "root";

                VBmProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;

                VBmProcess.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = "/usr/bin";

                VBmProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "";

                VBmProcess.StartInfo.Domain = "my machine name";

                VBmProcess.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;

                VBmProcess.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;



                System.Security.SecureString SecPass = new
System.Security.SecureString();



                foreach (char unChar in "my root password")

                {

                    SecPass.AppendChar(unChar);

                }

                VBmProcess.StartInfo.Password = SecPass;



                VBmProcess.Start();

                VBmProcess.WaitForExit();
