Password Decryption Service

Installs Password Decryption service. Service is installed to %ProgramFiles%\AdmPwd\PDS folder.

When installing PDS, the following actions are performed:

• Windows Firewall exception is created, allowing AdmPwd.PDS.exe to open necessary network listeners
• Subfolder CryptoKeyStorage is created under %ProgramFiles%\AdmPwd\PDS folder, and PDS service account (NETWORK SERVICE) receives read/write permission to this folder
  • This is necessary so as PDS service could maintain encryption/decryption keys in this folder
• Registration of event message file PDS.Messages.dll for service with EventLog service
• Event message file receives additional Read+Execute permission for LOCAL SERVICE. This is needed for Event Log service to be able to load the file

Unattended setup of PDS can be achieved by the following command line:
Msiexec /i /q AdmPwd.E.Tools.Setup.<platform>.msi ADDLOCAL=PDS

Note: During uninstall, installer does NOT remove any key pairs contained in CryptoKeyStorage folder
