 The Corda all-in-one ``corda.jar`` file is generated by the ``gradle buildCordaJAR`` task and defaults to reading configuration from a ``node.conf`` file in the present working directory.
 This behaviour can be overidden using the ``--config-file`` command line option to target configuration files with different names, or different file location (relative paths are relative to the current working directory).
