Matthew,
Thanks for the info. 

>now, as far as the windows registry, the InstallDir key in
>the setup guide says:
>"The jrun.rootdir system setting on Windows 95/98/NT/2000 is set by JRun's
>installation utility and is stored in the Windows registry."

Hardwiring the value in the properties file(especially local.properties!!!)
is really uncool when you should be getting it from the registry each time
jrun starts. What's the point in having a registry? And, it's just asking
for trouble to have it in 2 places unless the customer specifically sets it.
Furthermore, it also contradicts and pollutes the whole scheme of global and
local properties.

The best solution is to do what the doc implies; to take the InstallDir
value as the jrun.rootdir, then override it ONLY if it is done so explicitly
in the properties files.

thanks,
