configuring tomcat/apache using loadbalancing for ajp

[Scott Burns <sb...@trcinc.com>]

I am curious if this setup looks correct. I am confused about using the alias directive.  If you have multiple workers how can you specify more than one alias with the same fakename? Do I need to use them.  do I need to explicitly use them for the JkMount directives?   thanks
