Tomcat 4.1 and auto-redirect/URL rewrite

[David Wall <d....@computer.org>]

I have a page in a tomcat 4.1 webapp that has a rather lengthy path name, 
but I'd like to be able to email a much shorter link to avoid long links 
being broken across lines by some older email clients.

With Apache HTTPD's rewrite module, this could be accomplished.  Is there 
something similar in TC?  I'd like to map something like:

https://www.myhost.com/app/pickup?c=12345678901234567890

to

https://www.myhost.com/app/custom/customerName/applicationName/welcome.jsp?c=12345678901234567890

I know I could create a servlet that does an auto-redirect, but I'm looking 
to see if TC has anything that more directly will rewrite the URLs.

Thanks,
David
