so what is the solution to this issue? I have ran into exact same issue where I want to run jenkins as a different user?

I was able to update jenkins user in sysconfig by passing config_hash like below but jenkins failed to start up and it somehow still creates jenkins user class { 'jenkins':...

Ok. Strangely jenkins user still gets created. Does yum install jenkins creates it? Also, I need to chown /var/log/jenkins and /var/chache/jenkins in order to jenkins work under a different user....
