Feature request: Install worker agent to run as a domain user on Windows #458

Open jusiskin opened 3 weeks ago

Use Case

To be able to setup the worker agent to run as a domain user. This is important for compliance and consistency when setting up worker hosts in certain organizations. Some organizations want all user accounts to be centrally managed in a directory/domain.

Proposed Solution

Modify the worker agent installer to support supplying a --user argument that specifies a domain user. This should support specifying the user using "user principal name" and/or "down-level logon name" formats (see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/secauthn/user-name-formats).
