RunAs, ProcessEx UDF and returned errorlevels - (Moved)

[SanCon]

Greetings,

I've found and used @TheDcoder's ProcessEX UDF, and have found it and invaluable tool in my scripting arsenal. Recently, I found myself needing to create a script which then attempts to run another program as a different user. I was able to heavily borrow from the _Process_RunCommand function to create _Process_RunAsCommand:

; #FUNCTION# ====================================================================================================================
; Name ..........: _Process_RunAsCommand
; Description ...: Runs a command or an executable under a different user security privilege.
; Syntax ........: _Process_RunAsCommand($iMode, $sUserName, $sUserPass, $sUserDomain, $sExecutable [, $sWorkingDir = @TempDir [, $iRunOptFlag = $STDERR_MERGED]])
; Parameters ....: $iMode               - Mode in which this function should operate, See Remarks.
;                  $sUserName           - User name under which you would like to run the command/executable.
;                  $sUserPass           - Password for $sUserName.
;                  $sUserDomain         - Domain name to which the $sUserName belongs.
;                  $sExecutable         - The command to run/execute (along with any arguments).
;                  $sWorkingDir         - [optional] The working directroy for the command. Default is @TempDir. $sUserName must have
;                                         privileges to create/modify files on this directory.
;                  $iRunOptFlag         - [optional] The Opt flag for the Run function. Default is $STDERR_MERGED.
; Return values .: Success: Mode $PROCESS_RUN     : Will return the process handle & @extended will contain the PID of the command
;                           Mode $PROCESS_RUNWAIT : Will return the output & @extended will contain the exit code for the function
;                  Failure: Will return False & @error will contain:
;                           1 - If the $iMode flag is invalid
;                           2 - If the command is invalid
; Author ........: J. Sanchez, heavily borrowing from code by TheDcoder
; Modified ......: N/A
; Remarks .......: 1. The ONLY valid modes are: $PROCESS_RUN & $PROCESS_RUNWAIT
;                     $PROCESS_RUN     : Will act similarly to Run function, See Return values
;                     $PROCESS_RUNWAIT : Will act similarly to RunWait function, See Return values
;                     If you use $PROCESS_RUN then use _Process_GetExitCode to get the exit code & use StdoutRead to get the output of the command
;                  2. Use $PROCESS_COMMAND to run commands like this: $PROCESS_COMMAND & "ping 127.0.0.1"
;                  3. Add $PROCESS_DEBUG to $iMode to automagically debug the command, $PROCESS_RUN is equivalent to $PROCESS_RUNWAIT in this case
; Related .......: RunAs, RunWait
; Link ..........: http://bit.ly/ProcessUdfForAutoIt
; Example .......: Yes, see example.au3
; ===============================================================================================================================; Functions
Func _Process_RunAsCommand($iMode, $sUserName, $sUserPass, $sUserDomain, $sExecutable, $sWorkingDir = @TempDir, $iRunOptFlag = $STDERR_MERGED)
    Local $iExitCode = 0 ; Declare the exit code variable before hand
    Local $sOutput = "" ; Declare the output variable before hand
    Local $bDebug = False ; Declare the debug variable before hand
    If BitAND($iMode, $PROCESS_DEBUG) Then $bDebug = True
    If BitAND($iMode, $PROCESS_RUN) Then
        $iMode = $PROCESS_RUN
    ElseIf BitAND($iMode, $PROCESS_RUNWAIT) Then
        $iMode = $PROCESS_RUNWAIT
    Else
        Return SetError(1, 0, False)
    EndIf
    ; If Not $iMode = $PROCESS_RUN Or Not $iMode = $PROCESS_RUNWAIT Then Return SetError(1, 0, False) ; If the mode is invalid...
    ;Local $iPID = Run($sExecutable, $sWorkingDir, @SW_HIDE, $iRunOptFlag) ; Run!!! :P
    Local $iPID = RunAs($sUserName,$sUserDomain,$sUserPass,BitAND(0,4),$PROCESS_COMMAND & " " & $sExecutable,$sWorkingDir,@SW_HIDE,$iRunOptFlag)
    If @error Then Return SetError(2, @error, False) ; If the command is invalid...
    Local $hProcessHandle = _Process_GetHandle($iPID) ; Get the handle of the process
    If $iMode = $PROCESS_RUN Then
        If Not $bDebug Then Return SetExtended($iPID, $hProcessHandle) ; If the function is in Run mode then return the PID & Process Handle
        $sOutput = _Process_DebugRunCommand($hProcessHandle, $iPID) ; Debug the process
        $iExitCode = _Process_GetExitCode($hProcessHandle) ; Note the exit code
        Return SetExtended($iExitCode, $sOutput) ; Return the output & exit code
    EndIf
    If Not $bDebug Then
        While ProcessExists($iPID)
            $sOutput &= StdoutRead($iPID) ; Capture the output
            Sleep(250) ; Don't kill the CPU
        WEnd
        $sOutput &= StdoutRead($iPID) ; Capture any remaining output
        $iExitCode = _Process_GetExitCode($hProcessHandle) ; Note the exit code
        Return SetExtended($iExitCode, $sOutput) ; Return the exit code & the output :D
    EndIf
    $sOutput = _Process_DebugRunCommand($hProcessHandle, $iPID) ; Debug the process
    $iExitCode = _Process_GetExitCode($hProcessHandle) ; Note the exit code
    Return SetExtended($iExitCode, $sOutput) ; Return the output & exit code
EndFunc

The issue that I currently have is that, regardless of what the errorlevel returned by the program being executed, the errorlevel returned by the _Process_RunAsCommand is 259, which, according to this page it means that there's no more data (I'm guessing from the STDIO and STDERR?)

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
