Description

Currently, we are unable to pass in agruments to the FlumeNodeDaemon.WindowsService method other than Start and Stop. Particularly a useful command would be to start, but with the jetty wap disabled. Really, we should be able to specify any arguments (such as -s), by placing them after Start. For example, Start -s.

I have already written this change locally and would like suggestions before I submit it for review. Thanks.
