Sorry I misunderstood. I don't have that book so I'm going to try my best.
If I remenber jserv, you set a mount point so apache knows that a certain URI
request should be sent to the jserv. E.g., http://servername.com/servlet/Chat.
So, in this case any URI that starts with servlet/ will get "mapped" to jserv. Any
extra path info after servlet/ is also get sent to jserv. In this case, jserv
has to parse the URI.
Also, I think you're correct that this is in apache.conf.
This is an incomplete answer, I know, but other than referring you back to
the spec chapter about mapping requests to servlets, and reading that carefully,
that's all I can come up with.
The servlet mapping thing can be difficult to understand, especially with
all the apache config options thrown for good measure. So, don't feel too
bad about not grasping all the details. As you can probably tell from
my answer, I'm no master either. :)
