Hi,
I was in need for a simple user / password validation. I wanted to make a policy available for all client computers but did not want that every "normal" user could start the task. So the easiest way I thought was to have some kind of password prompt however vbscript does not allow to to mask the password so I found some vbscript examples starting Internet Explorer and use the password input options available there. I have wrapped all togheter in a job with some tasks and conditions. See here:
Running this job first starts the password prompt script.
Entering the right password leads you to task "LoginSuccess".
Entering wrong password leads you to "LoginFailed".
Attached you find the Jobs and Tasks as XML exports as well as the vbscript which is used in the password prompt script.
