Well, a favicon is usually placed in the root of the URL, like
www.myserver.com/favicon.ico

Doing that in a java webapp container usually involves adding that file
not to the xwiki webapp, but to the ROOT webapp. In tomcat, there is a
ROOT directory inside webapps.

Another solution is to put something like this in
webapps/xwiki/skins/albatross/htmlheader.vm:

<link rel="icon" href="$xwiki.getSkinFile("favicon.png")" type="image/png"/>
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="$xwiki.getSkinFile("favicon.png")"
type="image/png"/>

and put a favicon.png (you can change the name, if you want) in
webapps/xwiki/skins/albatross

If you're not using the albatross skin, change the path accordingly.
