Hello Mark,
is far as i understood the config-files, you can attach properties
to servlets by referring to the full name of its class, including
the whole package-path, or by referring to its alias.
I would suggest to try to assign the following values:
masterpackage.subpackage.myservlet.database.name=MyDataBase
if your servlet reside inside the package masterpackage.subpackage.
of course don't forget to restart the werbserver to force it to
reload the jserv.properties file.
hth,
Thomas
