Re: Friendly URLs

Well the way Tomcat works is the following :

/context_name/servlet_mapping

So basically the only way to get "rid" of the context name is to set 
Jahia as the root context, which can be accomplished through the 
tomcat/conf/server.xml file. For more documentation please refer to 
Tomcat's web site (http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat)

As for the servlet mapping, you should be able to change it in the 
tomcat/webapps/jahia/WEB-INF/web.xml under the servlet mapping. It's 
been a while since we tested modification of this parameter so you might 
run into some strange behavior.

Otherwise you can do all this and much more by using a frontal Apache 
server and rewriting rules as Philippe suggested.
