Removal of J2EE Agent Dependency on Administrative Accounts

With the authorization of administrators now being handled by an agent profile account, the dependence on two administrative accounts, the amAdmin account and the amldapuser account, has been removed. Now, during installation, the agent installer prompts you for the agent profile account.

Benefit - Removal of Dependency on Administrative Accounts: The benefit of not using the amAdmin or amldapuser administrative accounts is greater security. The 2.2 release of J2EE agents depends solely on a limited agent profile. This dependence does not rely on the existence of sensitive account information in the agent deployment configuration.
