As I work through the setup of my first jackrabbit on a server, I am wading through the files and docs. 

I see in the file web.xml a lot of commented out directives, as follows...

 <!--
        <init-param>
            <param-name>repository-config</param-name>
            <param-value>/WEB-INF/repository/repository.xml</param-value>
            <description>the repository config location</description>
        </init-param>
-->

Do I infer correctly that I need to create the physical paths, uncomment the directives, and deploy the application again?
