FZ server/service chokes if account <> local system

[anonymous]

An attempt to have the FZ server service run under a
user other than local system causes the service to fail
on startup (and remain unstartable/unstoppable as a
service).

Steps to reproduce:
a) create a local user, say "ftp"
b) change that user's group to "guest".
c) set FZ server login credentials to user=ftp
d) try to (re)start the service.

Result:
the service is hung and does not respond to attempts to
start or stop it. It cannot be killed, and cannot be
connected to by the FZ server interface.

AFAIK the guest group doesn't have enough permissions to
run a server.
