One of the properties files being loaded above contains the
credentials for our Nexus. No anonymous access allowed (sysadmin
decision). Using the ${file.separator} at least made the path look
normal. Unfortunately Nexus still only seems to allow you in if you
have every single right. That is another problem however. So I thought
the credentials weren't being loaded, and I think I saw evidence of
that in the output (ant -d -v). I'll test it again just to confirm
this, but it might take a while. I don't work with windows here so I
have to corner someone who does.
