It's a very powerful module - it can conditionally set cookies, 
conditionally rewrite URLs, proxy requests, set Apache environment

WEB-INF/jrun-web.xml is where you would normally add:

<virtual-mapping>
     <resource-path>/</resource-path>
   <system-path>/Users/scorfiel/Sites</system-path></virtual-mapping>

I don't know what the equivalent is for Tomcat.
