David, Thanks for this suggestion, Could you further explain #1. I'd like to just be able to use the war file for this, as the webapp doesn't use any ejb right now.
The 2.4.x book gives no information on the context-root attribute except for in the application.xml file. The 3.0 getting started guide (in the jetty section) also mentions this method using jboss-web ("put a jboss-web.xml into your .war's WEB-INF directory and specify the context root in that"), I guess I really need an example on jboss-web that uses this method.
