The jkautomount feature, part of the ajp13 evolution proposal,
ajp14, will not be included in mod_jk 1.2.0 (the version from
jakarta-tomcat-connector/jk/native).

It may be implemented in the currently developped mod_jk 2.0
(jakarta-tomcat-connector/jk/native2).

So for now you could use :

JkMount /URL/* to make tomcat handle all /URL/ request.

Regards:

BTW, mod_jk 1.2.0 is in final stage and should be released
next week. I hope to have better documentation since many
people proposed to contribute their own works to jakarta ;)

The documentation will probably be available at jakarta.org,
and not in mod_jk 1.2.0 tarball, since it will not be ready 
at the release time.

Thanks for the reply, good to hear something definitive.

A couple more quick followup questions:

When you say "mod_jk 2.0", is that the same thing as "mod_jk2" that
I've seen mentioned so often?

Will there be a separate mod_jk 1.2.0 tarball, or will it be part of
the jakarta-tomcat-connectors package?

Thanks again.
