This makes the driver available to ALL web-apps in you container

Better to make it available per web-app by putting the JARs/classes in the
\mywebapp\WEB-INF\lib\ directory

This should be considered the correct way to make drivers available to
servlet/JSP app, setting the CLASSPATH should be considered a last resort
