Yes, pretty much. I'm guessing that Apache will try it's own page types
first (index.shtml, index.html etc.) and if if doesn't find any, pass
the request to Tomcat (through mod_jk) for index.jsp and then index.vm
(in that order, since that's how it's specified in DirectoryIndex).

Just for the record, the server displayed the content of the directory
(this is on the test machine where that's allowed).

When I put explicit URL in the address field of the brower (e.g.
http://www.testsite.dev/index.vm) it does work (i.e. Tomcat picks up the
servlet that handles *.vm pages etc.).
