It pretty much depends on what web server you're using. Most will allow you to configure the server such that a specific file in the web directory will be the default document, and that's what you want to do. Configure the server so that servletdir\servlet name is the default document. You'll have to register a domain name for that IP address to have a domain name, and if the servlet container or web server is running on a port number other than 80, then the port number is simply going to have to be part of the URL.

For more information, consult your web server documentation.
