I would suggest using a properties file in the same directory as the
build.xml that contains the path to the other properties file. Some this
like this...
buld.properties
================
some.other.properties=C:\Path\To\Other.properties
build.xml
================
...
<property file="build.properties"/>
<property file="${some.other.properties}"/>
...
