I have filters working fine on TC 4.0b1
Is demo the name of your web application?
If so your web.xml file should look like this
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>prePost</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>helloWorld</filter-name>
<url-pattern>/hello.jsp</url-pattern>
</filter-mapping>
Even if demo is asubdirectory I would try the first filter mapping here
(i.e. filter everything) and see if that works,
