Hmmm, so you mean that if the root is 
/home/galder/access/eap-rel/4.3.0.ga.cp01/server/189901, the filter has 
to be something like deploy/*-foobar.xml, rather than just *-foobar.xml 
if the root was 
/home/galder/access/eap-rel/4.3.0.ga.cp01/server/189901/deploy ?

I'm not sure whether we're talking about the same thing here.
