 You may already know this, but for the benefit of others: 

 <mini-rant>
 Tomcat has this awful, confusing "feature" that you don't
 have to use web.xml to set up servlet mappings. There's an
 automatic mapping added so that any url's like this:
 "/servlet/this.is.a.class.name" will call your servlet.
 The "/servlet" mapping is not in the spec, and it won't
 work on other containers. If Microsoft did it, everyone
 would be screaming about "embrace and extend". Heh.
 </mini-rant>

 Anyway, you can turn it off. In Tomcat 4 there's a
default web.xml file in conf/web.xml. Go in there and
comment out the "InvokerServlet" mapping.
