Basically, if you are using Tomcat 4, you just have to copy your servlets to
CATALINA_HOME$/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes. I created a symlink under
CATALINA_HOME$ named servlets that is linked to
webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes. So, when I copy my servlets over I just copy
them to /opt/jakarta-tomcat/servlets. ROOT is the default context.
