The easiest way is to rely on you network admins to ensure no one is 
eavesdropping. But sometimes that isn't possible.

The next easiest way to use an ssh tunnel between tomcat and apache. You need 
google for the specifics. But from your apache servers - if you have one 
tomcat - you'd probably do this:

ssh -N -L 8009:tomcat1.joedog.org:8009 -C -f ssh.joedog.org
Or if you have ssh installed on tomcat1.joedog.org - you can save yourself an 
extra hop:
ssh -N -L 8009:localhost:8009 -C -f tomcat1.joedog.org

Of course - there will be a performance tradeoff by using this trick but the 
security tradeoff can be worth it.

See google for more details on ssh tunneling.

(the short answer is basically you don't use Tomcat -- you use networking
infrastructure)
