Hi Brian...
Installing the service as a specific user works, and I have used it that way
for a long time. However, to do that I add rights to the users to log on as
a service. Given that there has been questions from time to time about what
rights and how to set them, I wondered if giving cygrunsrv the ability to
change users would reduce this. I can live with things as they are, I
thought it would be a usefull addition.
It would be a significant learning curve for me, so I wanted to see if there
was interest and/or someone who was willing to implement it before
embarking.
Thanks,
...Karl
