Here's something you can try. I haven't tried it exactly myself,
although I have tried something similar (i.e. having
http://www.foo.com/bar/ go directly to a servlet). The steps below
are analogous to what I have done.
First, add a directive to your tomcat/apache conf file that directs
*all* requests to tomcat's default context. This might be something
like:
JkMount /* /ROOT
(I'm using mod_jserv, not mod_jk, which is an additional reason I'm
not 100% sure of what exactly you need to do this part of it.)
Second, add a servlet-mapping for the URL "/" to the servlet you wish
the requests to go to (I believe you'll have to have defined that
servlet, i.e. set up a servlet-name for it). This should go in
tomcat's root context's web.xml file.
That's it.
