IIRC it works 2 ways. The webserver forwards the request to JRun and lets JRun do its thing based on the configuration in web.xml (for the wildcard handler). But the webserver also translates the path according to its own virtaul directories and sends the translated path along as a cgi variable (for extensions). That gives JRun another option to figure out which template to run. (You could really see this with the 'cacherealpath' issue in CF 6 where one CGI variable was translated and another wasn't.) But isn't the Apache connector open source? Just examine the source and settle this for once and for all (or at least until Scorpio).
