The details will depend on your operating system. Is this on Linux or Windows? If Linux, what distribution (Ubuntu, Red Hat, etc.) and version? Some general notes: o Virtual hosting and proxying are two separate issues. The proxy connection will run within the virtual host. o Proxying between Tomcat and HTTPD can be done using HTTP or AJP. You need to choose one. The two services must both be configured to agree on the details of their connection. o Do you want to create a self-signed certificate, or obtain a certificate from a certificate authority? Self-signed certificates are easier and quicker to create, but will not be trusted by browsers. They are useful for testing, or in closed environments. A commercial or corporate certificate should be automatically trusted within the scope of the authority which signed it. To make your repository generally available, you will most likely want a commercial certificate. o It may be best to get these things working one at a time. That is: first set up the virtual host and test that you can get service from it with a simple static page. Then set up the proxy connection and test that you can get service from DSpace. Then add the certificate and set up HTTPS. -- Mark H. Wood Lead Technology Analyst University Library Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis 755 W.
