Have you got an http server in there? Let the http server capture the request and send it off.
Alternatively, if you're hitting WAS directly, there's a way you can configure the 'default host' to accept requests directly. When you do a default install, was has all those apps running at localhost/SnoopServlet and localhost/ExampleServlet, or whatever. That's using the default host.

Thanks,
1. can you be more specific please ? how should i configure WAS in order to let my app to accept requests directly ?
2. Regarding to http server - I can install one, but how should i configure that all the requests go directly to my app ? (what should I configure in httpd.conf ?)
Thanks again !

For part 2, you install the Http Server, and then, install the WAS plugin, which tells the http server to send all incoming requests to the appropriate port:context root for the request.
You intall the web server, and then, on the web server, take the installation disc for WEbSphere. Then you do a full installation, BUT, when it asks which component to install, you DE-select EVERYTHING except the IBM Http Plugin. This then installs the IBM Http Plugin on the http server. That's essentially the steps.
If this is just something you're hacking around with, I'd look at configuring the 'default host' to accept port 80 requests.
