A less efficient but purer way would be to put the driver jar in WEB-INF/lib with the rest of your application. This means that
PRO: Different web-apps can have different versions of the driver CON: Each web-app would load up a separate instance in it's own classloader, thus wasting memory.
Generally I prefer the latter as it keeps tomcat "clean"

I am trying to conect my servlets with the JDBC driver, (in my case it is msql, but i think thi no matter). then my question, is where must i place the jar file which containd the JDBC driver, in the structure of Tomcat?
Thank for all
We put a symbolic link to it in the <tomcat-home>/lib directory/folder. It would also work to simply copy it there.
