Apache + mod_jk + Tomcat + Internet

[AM...@aol.com]

Hi All 

I was wondering if the following is possible

I have a Apache (1.3.26) web server on Linux and a tomcat (4.04) on Windows 
XP which communicates via the mod_jk module.  At present they are on the LAN 
but due to exceptional reasons I need to separate them and the only way I 
will be able to connect them is over the internet. Is it possible for me too 
safely have them running as if they were operating on a safe LAN as before 
without the need of a VPN?

Regards

I'm not so sure you want to do this anyway; besides the security
considerations, you're going to take an extra performance hit where every
request for dynamic content has to go back out over the web to your Tomcat
machine and come back ...

Why can't you just put Tomcat on the Linux box too? or apache on Windows? or
run Tomcat standalone...
