Serving protected files with mod_jk2?

Hi!

When a complete webapp is served using mod_jk2, how is it possible that
static files (e.g. images) are served by Apache?

Is it still possible when container based authentication is used for the
entire webapp? This means that you need a valid JSESSIONID even for
accessing the images.

Thanks for your help,
	boris

They aren't. (If tomcat *is* serving the entire webapp)

In this case, it may not be worth having apache in front of tomcat. (Unless 
you are utilizing load balancing or other apache features)
