tomcat - eliminate /index.jsp in browser URL display?

843835Feb 6 2003 — edited Nov 3 2005

In my (and most) Apache configurations for static *.html files, the index.html file of a directory (or site index page) is not displayed in the browser.

http://www.mysite.com/
http://www.mysite.com/dir/

In the default configuration of Tomcat, the trailing index.jsp is always displayed.

http://www.mytomcatsite/index.jsp
http://www.mytomcatsite/dir/index.jsp

Is there any way to suppress the display of index.jsp in Tomcat (4.1)? If so, are there any ramifications?
