Calling nscp (NSClient**) commands thru icinga2 agent running under 'network' permission on Windows effects an undesirable Output like:

something odd happend....

Running the agent under 'local system' will fix it. Would be nice to have a checkbox in the node wizard to choose the permission.

• Status changed from New to Assigned
• Assigned to set to jflach
• Target Version set to 2.4.0

Ideally the Windows setup wizard would have three options:

[x] NetworkService (default, i.e. what we're using right now)
[ ] LocalSystem
[ ] Other account:

• Target Version set to 2.5.0

This won't work because icinga2-installer.exe (which is invoked by msiexec during upgrades) re-installs the Icinga 2 service with the default user (i.e. NetworkService). When a user chooses to run Icinga 2 with another user we're going to have to save that username somewhere so that icinga2-installer.exe can re-install the service with the right user.

Should we add this to the incinga2.conf?

The downside would be that someone might change it causing unexpected behaviour.
We could safe it to the registry, too.
