	Hi Fab,
	 
	When testing WSD from an account that is not an administrator, I
have found out that we have a critical problem in this scenario. IT
seems that the way that we were creating the IOCTLs for IBAT was wrong,
and so was the way that we were opening the devices.
	 
	The following patch solves this problem. (See also discussions
on the OpenVpn forums about this:
http://openvpn.net/archive/openvpn-users/2004-09/msg00233.html)
	 
	 
	Please also note that such a user will also not be able to
connect to the performance counters. Can you please fix this problem?
	 
	Another issue that we have noticed is that there is no counter
that tells the number of sockets that were connected using WSD. Can you
add such a counter?
	 
	 
	Thanks
	Tzachi
