there are plenty of different ways of doing it.
one way is to create a proxy servlet that streams the content from any local
directory.
this way you can move the stuff without changing your URLs since the servlet
locates the files on local drives.
another way is to create aliases where you alias a url context with a
particular location on your machine.
