I have JBoss 4.2.3.GA running on Solaris 10. I'm attempting to have the "work" directory created in a custom location by setting the "jboss.work.dir" system variable to the custom path, however, the work directory is still being created under the server/<server_name>/work directory:
> find .

I dont want to use symlinks to redirect the output and would rather do this through configuration inside the container. Please advise if you require any further information.
