Proxy server options for SSL from Apache to Tomcat

["Brett G. Palmer" <pb...@qwest.net>]

We have been using an Apache/Tomcat on the "same machine configuration" in
production for several months now.  We are starting to roll out more J2EE
components that work best with the servlet container and the J2EE container
on the same machine.  This means we would like to leave Apache at the front
of our configuration and move Tomcat/JBoss to an application server inside
the firewall.  We are currently having problems getting the proxy server on
Apache to work with SSL and Tomcat.  Does anyone have suggestions for
setting up this kind of configuration?  Can you still use a mod_jk
configuration for communication across servers or does mod_jk only work when
the servers are running on the same machine?

Thanks for your help,

Brett

I know absoluely nothing about your proxy stuff, but I hear mod_jk 
should work just fine with TC located on a seperate machine from apache. 
 You may be interested in ubeans.com/tomcat.  While he sets both of his 
up locally, he indicates what would have to be done to put (one) TC on 
another machine.  The same principal would apply, I think.

HTH,

Eddie
