java - How do I specify the JDK for a GlassFish domain?

Question

I've got GlassFish 2.1.1 installed. I have a 1.5 and a 1.6 JDK installed. Even though my JAVA_HOME variable is set to the 1.5 version (and both "java -version" and "javac -version" display 1.5), whenever I start my glassfish domain it always states at the top of the log that its using version 1.6. How can I override this?

Starting Domain domain2, please wait.
