I think Mike Grady could probably chime in on that since he's been dealing with a bug that seems to be preventing it from getting saved across upgrades. Or wait until Rod's online and can answer. Or it's documented in the wiki already. But I'm fairly sure it isn't done with a file.

Note the sections on Jetty Configuration and on Java Installed from a .tar.gz file (tarball). In either case, you run the executable which by default would be found here:

  c:\Program Files (x86)\Shibboleth\Procrun\shib_idpw.exe
