Can't create servlet-mapping of "/" (not "/*")

           Summary: Can't create servlet-mapping of "/" (not "/*")
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: 4.0.4 Final
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT/2K
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Webapps:Administration
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: helium_wong@hotmail.com


web.xml:

--begin--
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 
2.3//EN" "http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>Demo</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>Demo</ervlet-class>
  </servlet>

  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Demo</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>/</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
--end--

I would like to map "http://host/context" to the Demo servlet by using the 
above web.xml.  But, it seems that all the request to the above context will be 
map to Demo too (e.g., http://host/context/foo.html will be map to Hello too)!  
The "/" url-pattern just act like "/*".
