Delegation with Version 3

Version 3 adds the method of delegation to the software.
This means that within an Windows NT environment an authenticated handle can be passed to other machines which can create processes using the context being passed to the service.

The executables wrsh.exe and rcon.exe are responsible for passing the handles.

WRSH.exe first tries to contact the host using the delegation method. If this should fail, it reverts to the conventional rsh client method.

RCON.exe tries to impersonate the process using the delegation method only.

Delegation ON / OFF:

· The registry entry \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\RSHD holds the key WRSHD_DELEGATION. If this string value is set to ON, then delegation is allowed, OFF means delegation has been disabled. If you want to change your decision made during the installation, then you can easily modify these values using regedit.exe vor example.
