Hi Stephen,
I have now added a new property to the Maven plugin to do what you want:
Added new <code>cactus.sysproperties</code> property to the
Maven plugin for Cactus to allow passing system properties to
the client and server side Cactus JVMs.
It's in CVS HEAD for now. I'll upload a nightly build sometime this
week.
Thanks
-Vincent
