Thanks for the pointer, but could you be more specific.  I looked
through virtually everything off the jserv link off the main page
there (which takes you to http://java.apache.org/jserv/index.html),
and didn't find anything that was helpful.  There was one thing
entitled "Using Apache JServ 1.0" that looked like it would cover it
at

http://java.apache.org/jserv/install/index.html

but unfortunately, that link wasn't working (it goes to
http://www.servletcentral.com, which wasn't responding.)
