Create a default.jsp with either:
<jsp:forward page="your/servlet/path"/>
or
<% response.sendRedirect("your/servlet/path"); %>
depending on which fits your preference best. I find that the redirect
is a bit better for debugging because jsp:forward munges any errors.
I never managed to configure Orion to use a servlet as the context root.
Nothing in the Servlet specification seems to require this be possible,
either.
