I have a service that currently talks to a client via named pipes.
I need to update it so it can run as a user with more privilages than the client has. I thought I had notes about re-setting access rights for the pipe so that they could work; but I can't find it...
does anyone know of a non-tcp/ip/udp based way to have IPC when service is running at a higher elevation than the user?
IPC across users rights.

Re: IPC across users rights.
Not sure about that, but you can change the properties of the service so that it can be run as a higher level user.
Services.msc, double click on the service to bring up the properties window, click the Log On tab, click This Account bullet, and fill in the account information.
I had to do this for a Watcher Service, and it works great.
