If that's the name it's been registered with in the JNDI java:comp/env/ context, yes. The J2EE spec recommends that you use a name that starts with "jdbc", however, so "jdbc/myDataSource" would be the full name if you follow the recommended conventions. The hard rule is that you must use the same name as you declare with the <res-ref-name> element in the web.xml file for the application. How to tell the container how to create and configure a data source with this name varies between containers. For Tomcat 4, it's done with the <ResourceParams> element in the conf/server.xml file.
