Passing user context to from impersonated thread to outproc COM object

I am writing a CPP program on windows 2k3 where i want to achieve the following thing.

Pass the user context from the impersonated thread to a outproc COM component.

Steps what i m trying in details are: 1) Start an execution of exe with user USR1 2) Impersonate the current thread with USR2 3) Initiate a API on outproc COM object. And this COM object should run with USR2

What is happening: on 3rd step, COM object is getting started with USR1 only.

Can anybody help me in passing the user context to COM object.

Thanks in advance, Thumbeti

To have the server impersonate USR2, you have to use cloaking. To enable cloaking, you either have to call CoInitializeSecurity or CoSetProxyBlanket.
