Thanks for the response.  How bout if I want the mapping to be for *all*
webapps on the appserver?  Eg, I want:

http://hostname:8080/FOO/bar to map to /bar
http://hostname:8080/FOO/sampleWebapp to map to /sampleWebapp
http://hostname:8080/FOO/anotherWebapp to map to /anotherWebapp

Etc for all webapps in the server.  Is this behavior possible?

Howdy,
Sure, make BAH a simple web application with just one class, a filter mapped
to url-pattern /* that does a sendRedirect to  / + the rest of the path.  I
don't know if that's simpler than a Valve, but it's portable.

Apache's mod_rewrite can also do this, but you probably don't want to add
the complexity of an apache-tomcat setup for this reason alone.
