It doesn't actually work that way. You install Tomcat, Jetty, JBoss, Resin, or Enhydra (the top choices for JSP/Servlet containers) *alongside* Tomcat. You then either access the Tomcat server on it's own port (http://your-server:8080) or you install mod_jk in Apache and map certain URLs or patterns to your servlet container. We use JBoss, but if you're just looking to do plain JSP, you can get a tar-gz'd archive of tomcat and unzip it onto your BSD box. It's not necessary to install it from ports. Jetty and Resin seem like faster application servers, but I've had more trouble getting them configured than I have Tomcat. Maybe that's because I started with Tomcat back in the JServ days and am just more familiar with it. Good luck.
