Hi There
I would like to run programs as root, which means the userid and group need 
to be set to 0, and the name needs to = root.
I have looked through the ntsec.html document and I afraid it is too 
complicated for me to understand.
Can somebody explain how to do this to me in a more simplified format 
please?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Yours Sincerely Stephen Grant Brown.
