Specifying an Additional Policy File at Runtime

It is also possible to specify an additional or a different policy file 
when invoking execution of an application. This can be done via the 
"-Djava.security.policy" command line argument, which sets the value of 
the java.security.policy property. For example, if you use

     java -Djava.security.manager -Djava.security.policy=someURL SomeApp
...
