      We have to run Jenkins agents as Windows service because many of our builds require and use Windows Integrated (i.e. password-less) authentication to network resources like databases, file shares, etc. Unfortunately, there's no official documentation for how to do this. Being able to run builds so they can take advantage of Windows Integrated authentication is critical and improves security.

      Please document the official process for installing Jenkins agents to run as Windows services.
