Function ConfigureDistributedCacheService adds wrong managed account about autospinstaller

Not sure why you'd want or need to run it as any other account, but of course you're welcome to use your own mods here! Are you just making a note of this or are you requesting a modification to the shared codebase?

Hi Brian!
I think I'm suggesting a change to the shared codebase. Since the XML config file has a specific property for spDCache service account, doesn't it make sense that the function honor it?
Thanks

Wait, where does the XML have a specific property for spDCache account...?

Good question....... checking..... okay so this is what happened.

I was given a list of service accounts for my new farm (as specified by a consultant). DCache was on the list of accounts. So I created a managed account in the AutoSP config called spDCache. Then I assumed AutoSPInstaller would ... ahem ... magically figure out my intention and use it when provisioning distributed cache.

mea culpa!!! ... I'm sorry for wasting your time.... and the learning continues...

Hehe no worries. Had me second guessing there!
