The resource-ref element in your web.xml file decouples the web app from 
the actual resource name (it gets mapped to whatever is specified in 
your server-specific JNDI configuration). As far as I know, you'll still 
need to hard-wire your app to whatever is in web.xml, but at least this 
way you are not hard-wiring it to a specific JNDI server's resource name.
