The configuration below works for me ( TC 5.5.9/JDK1.5.0 ), with
or without an additional <url-pattern> mapping. So "default" is a
valid <servlet-name>; not sure what else might cause your filter
to fail.
<filter> <!-- print "oink" to stdout :-) -->
<filter-name>squealFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>filters.SquealFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>squealFilter</filter-name>
<servlet-name>default</servlet-name>
</filter-mapping>
HTH!
