Subject: [WiX-users] Passing securing information from the bootstrapper to an 
MSI bundle without logging

Hi all,

I'm sure this has come up in the past, but I can't seem to find any info that 
tackles this scenario.

How do you pass secure information from the bootstrapper to the MSI bundle 
without it being logged?

I've seen the articles for burn hidden variables and msi hidden properties, but 
nothing that passes values from one to the other without being logged.

The msi package installs and configures a windows service. The service must run 
using a windows user account. Atm, the account credentials are being passed to 
the msi through the command line (which is logged).

The one approach I can think of is to reconfigure the service after the msi has 
been installed (I don't know if that would affect the uninstall).

Is there a better approach?

Thanks,
Kevin
