OpenSAML user discussion

[Chad La Joie <>]

All of the JEE containers I've used (Tomcat, JBoss, WebSphere, and 
WebLogic) set their own endorsed directory when they start up.  If you 
set the system property on the command line or in the shortcut for WAS 
it's probably getting overwritten during startup.  Check the WAS 
documentation to see where to put endorsed jars, usually these apps just 
have a directory within their tree that you drop the jars into.
