accessing webapp via proxy

[Jan Behrens <Ja...@offis.de>]

Hello list,

we are currently in the pretest stage for a webapp we build for a customer 
situated at various locations. We got reports that our app could not be 
accessed by a number of testers who are connecting through a proxy. The 
funny thing is, they can access the first page (therefore can connect to 
the url and port 8080). The login then fails with a valid user account, 
the login data is stored in the session and requires cookies (which are 
enabled).

I have talked to the admins on the other side and as far as they know 
everything should be working... Has anyone experienced something similar? 
The archives are full of proxy questions, unfortunately all I found 
regarded other aspects of proxied connections :( I assume that this is not 
really Tomcat related but still hope that someone has an idea as to where 
to look for an answer.

Our setup: TC 5.0.28 @ 8080 on Suse 9 EE (Kernel 2.6.8-24.14-smp) with SDK 
1.4.2_06-b03

TIA,

Jan
