servlet mapping to root of the site and different web-app contexts

[Neeme Praks <ne...@one.ee>]

I'm trying to achieve the following effect:
I have a servlet (Turbine/Jetspeed) that I want to map to the root of my
website.
And I have a bunch of images that I want to be served as-is from the
filesystem.

To achieve this effect, I have defined a root webapp context and mapped the
servlet to the root of that context (that was pretty straightforward).
For the images, I have defined another web-app context.

However, when loading up page, none of the images show up... So, most
probably, Tomcat is not overriding the servlet mapping with the context
mappings...

Is it my stupidity or is it Tomcat? :-)

Any ideas?

PS. Using Tomcat 3.3m2 on Win2K with Sun JDK 1.3 (Classic VM (build 1.3.0-C,
native threads, nojit))

context definitions:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<webapps>
    <Context path="/portal/"
             docBase="/opt/portal"
             reloadable="true"
             trusted="false" >
    </Context>
    <Context path="/"
             docBase="/opt/portal"
             reloadable="true"
             trusted="false" >
    </Context>
</webapps>

web.xml:
