Sure. Set up a servlet context in the WEB-INF/web.xml
file. Then, setup an alias (servlet mapping) to the alias
url you want to use.
Example:
Servlet Context
<servlet>
<servlet-name>myServletAlias</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>myServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>
Servlet Mapping
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>myServletAlias</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/bin/ServletName</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
This example will run 'myServlet' whenever the url
http://www.domainname.com/bin/ServletName is requested.
You can also append .html or whatever to the url-patterns
to get friendly urls like:
http://www.domainname.com/users/login.html
If you're using packages, remember to include the package
name with the <servlet-class>, e.g., Users.myServlet
