Yes, that is correct. Within the <servlet> element you must have the
<servlet-name> element, which can be any unique name you want, and the
<servlet-class> element which has the real class name. Then within the
<servlet-mapping> element you must have a <servlet-name> which is the same as
one of the names from the <servlet> section, and you must have a <url-pattern>
element which tells Tomcat the url pattern that it will map to the identified
servlet. Here is an example for a servlet called "Login":
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Login</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>net.homeip.coconets.sessionpkg.Logout</servlet-class>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Login</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/Login</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
