Howdy,
If your servlet class is com.mycompany.MyServlet, and you'd like it to
be accessed as /MyServlet under your webapplication, add the following
to your web.xml:

<servlet>
  <servlet-name>MyServletName</servlet-name>
  <servlet-class>com.mycompany.MyServlet</servlet-class>
</servlet>

<servlet-mapping>
  <servlet-name>MyServletName</servlet-name>
  <url-pattern>/MyServlet</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>

Please note elements must be in the web.xml in the order specified in
the servlet specification, v2.3.  That document is available for
download at 
http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/index.html

While one doesn't have to memorize the servlet spec in order to develop
servlets, this kind of information is basic, and covered in detail (with
examples) in the specification.
