Re: moding tomcat to be a proxy server
If I had to do this ... (and performance is not an issue) - Look at HttpClient - Make sure sessions are not on - Create one webapp with one servlet mapped to EVERYTHING - Your servlet decodes the incoming request, and uses HttpClient to make the new request. Then your proxy is servlet container agnostic. -Tim Bill Ataras wrote: Google doesn't give me much.
