Yes, you should look at the docs for web.xml for creating
servlet-mappings. In fact, take the plunge and look at the specs
available at Sun for servlets 2.2:

I think this is done also in web.xml, using the same facilities as defined
in the 2.2 specs.
You may also need to define a servlet context in server.xml, depending on
how your directory structure is created.
