I am basically looking to expose JBOSS AS 7 server logs. I need to make sure that the logs are downloadable.

I'm not familiair with a method within JBOSS to do so, but you can use apache httpd. Install and configure it in either of the following ways: * expose the logging directory as a directory listing using httpd.conf, make sure to use .htaccess to provide some authentication. * create a PHP / static HTML to only expose the log files you want to.

In both cases you want to use IP listing, or a firewall, to restrict access.
