How to use AdminClient with local transport?

[Kai Grossjohann <ka...@emptydomain.de>]

My coworkers think that enabling the AdminService is a security hole,
but perhaps I could convince them if the AdminClient wasn't talking to
Tomcat but would rather edit the file directly.  Perhaps the local
transport is my friend.  But I don't understand how to use it.

If I invoke AdminClient -l local://, then a server-config.wsdd file
gets written to the current directory, but what I would like to do is
to edit the file that's used by Axis.

Any ideas?
