[users@httpd] Apache mod_jk ssh port_forwarding
Hi everyone
I am using Apache to serve static content and to act as a Load
Balancer to some Tomcat Nodes. I am interested in encrypting the data
flowing between apache and tomcat. Apache is using mod_jk to connect
tomcat on some port, say, 8009. I would like to use SSH port forwarding
to encrypt this data. I ran netstat in an attempt to find what port
apache/mod_jk uses to connect to tomcat. It appears there is quite a
range. Is there any way to deal with this? Anyone else come up with a
solution to this?
Thanks
AFrieze

May be you shouldn't use mod_jk at all? I'd configure HTTPS connector
in Tomcat and use mod_proxy between Apache and Tomcat. In this case
the channel will be encrypte with standard SSL.

I apologize,
I believe I just asked a question before fully understanding the
nature of my problem. I am going to do a little more research into ssh
port forwarding and I then may have another question.
Thank you
