Configuring xUnit test output in Hudson

I have a simple PoC project in Hudson. The PoC has unit tests written via UnitTest++ and outputs the results as XML for consumption by xUnit to munge into jUnit format.

Here are the salient relevant

I have my project configured to use MSBuild to build the 2008 solution.
The project contains both the dll it is to build and the unit tests which are run as a post-build step.
I set my workspace in Hudson is set to c:\develop\money (Money is the name of the project) and in the Hudson console I can see the workspace folders, the solution file and output folders (/bin, /doc, etc).
The test console app outputs its file 'money_unit_tests.xml' to the folder 'reports' (making c:\develop\money\reports) which is precreated.

However it seems that the workspace isn't sticking. If I submit the workspace directory it shows me the folders but if I then reload the page then it shows the 'No files in directory' message.

Why does Hudson not use C:\Develop... like I configured it?

What can I do change it?

If I can't change it, what can I do to mitigate these changes? (I don't exactly want to hardcode the output for the xml to C:.hudson...)

If you need your workspace at a specific location. That is where you configure it. --- What Do you actually mean with setting the workspace? Do you change the value of the WORKSPACE environment variable?

If you look in your project, there is a big folder called Workspace.If you click on it you are presented with a text box and a green button which says Submit. Set that to a directory name, submit it updates showing the files and folders in there but doesn't actually stick - if you reload the page it is the same if you hadn't visited there.
