After gaining shell access to a Windows box, is there any way to show

I have to demo the ability to gain administrator access to a Win 2000
box, the catch is no changes on the box so adding a user or loading
whoami.exe from resource kit would not be options. Any suggestion here
would be appreciated.
Thanks

Well, personally I would just remove the admin privs from all the other
users as proof, or drill it home with "netsh firewall set opmode
disable" (disables the firewall); but I suspect whoever asked you to
demo wouldn't be too thrilled with you doing things my style.
So for you, I would drag them over to the workstation and run "echo
%username%", which would show what user your shell is running as, and
then follow it with "net localgroup administrators", which will list all
administrators (I assume your running a local admin account, not as
System or Local Service).
Hope it helps.
