The regex above matches only the exact string /xfer with nothing
before or after. To match your request, you need something like
<LocationMatch ^/xfer/xfer/Servlet$>. But note this will work only for
that SINGLE url. You'll need to design a regex that matches all urls
that should be going to that server.

Yes, later <Location> sections override earlier ones. See:
