Thanks Ballock, your reply was very helpful indeed! Then you can use: "scripts_folder" string => "$(sys.workdir)resources/scripts"; Yeah, that's what I'll be doing, but currently I'm just "testing out" the files in a location other than "masterfiles" so that they won't be copied to other nodes as they're being tested. How do you suggest I go about testing scripts? Work on the "masterfiles" folder itself on a different machine? For the particular java case, I prefer to use Debian or RedHat packages to distribute it. If you just want to unpack it from a zipfile, perhaps it is better to just use a copy promise and copy this from a master server where it is kept unpacked. I did use rpm to install packages, but I'm required to install a particular version of Oracle's JDK and the latest version of maven, and setting up the repositories and stuff got quite patchy, that's why I decided to maintain installation media locally and install from there.
