The easiest way, using JWS, is to rename the file to classes111.jar and put
it in the <server_root>/lib directory. JWS automatically picks up all .jar
files in its lib directory when it starts, but it ignores .zip files. Since
.zip and .jar files use the exact same file format, there is no problem with
doing the renaming.
