Specify user / password in windows_service.pp #3

Hi all,

I want to upgrade this module to support new parameters (user & pass) in windows_service.pp. This is required by the migration functionality in openstack_hyper_v as the service has to be executed as an AD user.

The basic steps to do this properly are:

  • Give the privilege SeServiceLogonRight to the given user.
  • Add it to Administrators group (I'm not sure of this one, maybe it depends on the use case).
  • Set the user data through sc.exe.

The problem is that I don't know the way to automate giving SeServiceLogonRight to the user, other than using the external tool ntrights.exe (no shipped with Windows by default).

Said that, {@ppouliot, @vijaytripathi, @virmitio, @nickme} I'd appreciate your feedback on this... how to remove that dependency on ntrights? how can be done natively?
