I haven't really done this myself, so I'm not sure of the exact
details. But what did you do to put your servlets in the root
context? My impression is that the sample tomcat/apache conf file is
already configured to accept URLs without any context name for
serlvets in the root context. So then all you need do is put your
servlets (i.e. the class file) in the root context's WEB-INF/classes
directory. (Although since you want to use "/servlets/" instead of
"/servlet/", you may need to change something related to that --
e.g. perhaps another JkMount directive -- but it sounded like you had
already figured out that part of it.)
