    Default Detecting system user privileges on XP OS?

    Hi All,

    How to identify logged user is admin or non-admin on XP OS using Java API?

    We are planning to restrict non-admin users to run desktop application(Swing app) on XP.

    Any inputs will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Ravi T

    I just came accross some Windows API, which will suffice my requirement

    CheckTokenMembership Function (Windows)

    Looking for an example implementing this API in Java will be helpful.
