This is my entry running under Resin2.X <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>index.do</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list>
There is a physical file there but it's blank. Seems that resin just checks for existence before passing on the request.

I'd be interested to see what you've put in your WEB.XML file and which container you're using. I've just tried adding a welcome.do entry in mine for Tomcat 4.1.24 and it does not work.
My understanding is the same as K.C. - that it currently requires a physical file, but that this is slated to be changed in a later release of the servlet spec (I'm not sure if it made it into 2.4).
