Unfortunately, you can't.

Although it looks like a property value, it's not. And it is hard-coded in the code.

The reason is that this value must be set within spring and must be computed in advance for org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer to work properly.

Hello,

the only way that we could make it work was :

1) Place your new config files under :
# $TOMCAT_HOME/shared/classes/alfresco/alfresco-jmxrmi.access
# $TOMCAT_HOME/shared/classes/alfresco/alfresco-jmxrmi.password

2) Rename the default config files :
# $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/alfresco-jmxrmi.access.default
# $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/alfresco-jmxrmi.password.default

There is obviously a bug here because the default config files take precedent over the ones placed in the /shared folder
