Thanks Greg, worked like a charm!

Now for the next question regarding load-on-startup in my web.xml.

Other than having an "public void init" method in my servlet, and a
servlet definition on the web.xml with load-on-startup, is there
anything else that needs to be done?

The application is deploying fine, but is not running the init function
(I am doing a System.out.println("Servlet Started") to test).

Any thoughts would be appreciated,

Darren

Hi Darren:

        WEB-INF/lib is where you would put your '.jar' files.
Un'jarred' classes should go in WEB-INF/classes with the usual package
heirarchy under WEB-INF/classes.  So your class file should be
WEB-INF/classes/com/javaexchange/dbConnectionBroker/dbConectionBroker.cl
ass
