We are running Tomcat 7.0.29 on Windows 2008 R2 Service Pack 1. My question is this, the documentation specifically states, "For optimal security, the service should be run as a separate user, with reduced permissions (see the Windows Services administration tool and its documentation)." I am unable to find this Windows Services administration tool documentation; I have looked on the Wiki, the How-to's, and the all-knowing Google. However, my specific question is still unclear. I do NOT want this service running as SYSTEM. Can the Tomcat service run as a standard user, does the user need elevated permissions, or does it require local administrator access?
