> It would be useful to me (and hopefully others) to be able to specify fully-qualified pathnames in configuration files.  For example, if we want to integrate Geronimo with Linux systems we'll want to write logs into /var/log/geronimo or thereabouts.  I noticed that when I tried to use fully-qualified paths in configuration files they were resolved relative to Geronimo's home directory anyway.  This patch changes ServerInfo so that if a filename begins with a "/" it's treated as a fully-qualified path, and if it doesn't it's resolved relative to Geronimo's home.
> Please note that I haven't tried this on a Windows system, so I'm not sure what the effect is.  It works great on Linux.
