mod_jk is an apache module. I am running apache2 and tomcat4 on linux and I
downloaded the binary module from
http://www.apache.org/dist/jakarta/tomcat-connectors/jk/binaries/
There seems to be instructions for building for several platforms from source
at
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.1-doc/jk2/install/apache2.html

Apache is a web server - with lots of usage and good experience with in
terms of security facing the internet. You can get modules for it to run
scripting languages (for instance php), but it doesn't run java
applications.
Tomcat is primarily an engine for running web based applications in java,
but it also has the ability to serve static html. In this latter process it
does not have the security background of apache - so whilst it could be used
as a web server and an application server, it is normal to separate the two
(the web server may run in the dmz, the application server may run behind a
second firewall).
In order to link the two, you need to set up the mod_jk module.

It is possible (if the two servers are running on the same machine) to map
the apache <location> around the tomcat <directory> via an alias statement
(I think there is a mod_jk directive - something like jkautoalias that does
the same thing)
