I have a package that needs to be deployed through domain admins ,i.e., adminstrator account ,actually i have take one user name and password for a user who belongs to admin account and embbed this in package ,

so when package goes to domain admins it has to authenticate the user password and name and provide full rights to execute the package on all normal non admin user system.

Hmmm...hard-coding domain admin username and password in an MSI...

I think the word I'd use here is "sub-optimal". Surely your deployment mechanism can deploy with suitable privileges?

Er...my point was sarcastic. You absolutely do NOT want to have a domain admin-level account name ans password in an MSI.

How are your packages deployed? Why does this package need domain admin-level access?

Sunny4u,
I'm dying to find out what exactly the software does in order to call for domain admin rights, and why wouldn't local admin rights suffice?

I recall a release of Open Bloomberg (I think it was that...) which required membership of the local 'Administrators' group. Using an account with locakl admin rights wouldn't suffice - you had to be in the group! Awesome! LOL

sounds to me like you need to learn the concepts of msi elevation.

What is the difference between "membership of the local 'Administrators' group" and "account with locakl admin rights" ?

An account which is assigned Full Control for everything: file system, registry, GP...the works.
