You could put together a constructor or method for your DAO that accepts an input stream to read. That would at least maintain it's independence from the servlet container. Just need to have whatever create's an instance of your DAO call servletContext.getResourceAsStream() and pass the resulting input stream to your DAO instance. That might be easily doable in a ServletContextListener.
