JSF url-pattern *.jsf problem

Question

Hi all,
I am working in a project to add the jsf page in the existing jsp application. It uses Apache Tomcat 6.0.18 as the server and eclipse for coding.
I created a jsf page named index.jsp and I added the code in web.xml as follows
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsf</url-pattern>
<session-config>
<session-timeout>30</session-timeout>
</session-config>
</servlet-mapping>
and when I use the url
http:localhost:8080/myproject/index.jsf
Page did not open in the browser and browser reports page not found.
If I change url-pattern to
<url-pattern>/faces/* </url-pattern>
and
when I use the url
http:localhost:8080/myproject/faces/index.jsp
It works.
What should I want to do to make
http:localhost:8080/myproject/index.jsf to render in the browser?

I have no idea. Reinstalling the stuff is definately cumbersome. This is likely just a matter of configuration and/or the way of usage. Hard to say based on the as far given little information (read this how to ask questions the smart way and read this how to provide good code examples representing your actual problem).
If you want you can of course redo the setup of the environment and the code based on some reliable tutorial / book.I am sorry if my information is not sufficient. What information can I give to solve the problem?
