We are using RunDeck 3.1.1-20190923 on Windows Server 2016.  Part of our application needs to access a share drive to list out filenames on the network, but only our domain/users have access to the share drives.  The application was created in Talend 7.1.1 for big data and creates Java code.  When I check what account the app is running under in RunDeck it says "LOCAL SERVICE" .  After reading through the https://docs.rundeck.com/3.1.1/administration/security/authentication.html#propertyfileloginmodule I don't see how I can change the runner to run as a domain/user.  We have AD authentication.  How do I get RunDeck to run as a certain domain/user and authenticate via AD?

Hi Aaron,

That documentation is related to log in to Rundeck (but rundeck still running on the local account that launch the service), the best approach is to dispatch your job to the windows node using the PyWinRM plugin (with another user defined in an job option like this job level authentication example).

Greetings.
