OK, thanks. I got it to work using the servlet as the welcome file, but, now
I have the problem that I don't know how to protect the servlet when it's
accessed as the welcome file. I tried using a <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
for a security constraint, but, that causes images and a CSS file that I'm
using on my login page to be inaccessible.
