Impersonate Remote Localuser

[Angelo Castigliola III]

I am trying to write to the registry of a remote computer that is not on a
domain from a computer that is on a domain. I am trying to impersonate an
administrator account that is on this remote computer that is not on a
domain from my computer that is on a domain with this msdn example:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...ipalWindowsIdentityClassImpersonateTopic1.asp

I can impersonate anyone on the domain and any user account that is on my
local computer that is joined to the domain but I can not impersonate a user
account that is on a remote computer that is not on the domain. Is this even
possible?

How do I impersonate a administrator account local to the remote computer
that is not on a domain so I can write to the registry?

Did you specify the remote machine name as the domain name in the call to
LogonUser (argumant - domainName)?
