... and there are a few seasoned Apache users/develpers around here :-)
I'd also recommend using url-pattern and context name (configurable in
server.xml in case of Tomcat) for manipulating the application's path.
The mapping you put in your post has one caveat -- it directs all
requests to the servlet, thus making it impossible to have static
content (images and such) served by the container. Of course you could
have a screen to serve them, but there is little reason in doing it
that way.
