Hi Alex,

Went for the route "IIS 7 ARR to proxy to Tomcat". This was not very
hard, but now I have some new stuff to deal with.

Indeed Tomcat mentions this in the manual, but only for the connector,
not for reverse proxy. Can you point me into the right direction? The
necessary info is there (IP, server_name, script_name), but in
different request headers (e.g. HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR) and I would
prefer to have them replace the original headers, so that it is indeed
transparent for the app. And do I have to expect problems with
sessions/cookies?

Also, in such a setup, would it be very unlogical for me to setup the
reverse proxy NOT to forward static files, but serve these directly?
So forward requests for CFM, CFC and not the rest? Also I may have to
deal with SEO-friendly URL's in there too.

Still interested in that guide :-)

Ivo
