-1, I think we should pass an InstanceLayout object instead and that object 
could be shared between configuration objects.

I'm not sure, I handled that correctly in the Linux installers (has to be 
checked).
AFAIR, it's possible to override the default ([InstallationLayout]/log] path 
with the use of System properties defined when launching the server like 
"-Dapacheds.log.dir" and others.

As I said, it will probably need to be double-checked in the installers.

+1, or the OID if the AT has no aliases.
