Just to be specific, on the server this is done through the use of the -Duser.classpath=/path1:/path2 (on Linux) or -Duser.classpath=c:\path1;c:\path2 (on Windows).
I found the documentation confusing in that there is the distinction between the lib and lib/ext directories on the client (for search_paths and dependency_paths), but the user.classpath option does not care? What scenarios would I use search_paths / plugin_dependency_paths instead of user.classpath, and vice versa?
