I very rarely post to this list, but I've been building web sites for over eight years, and want to chime in. In my experience building web sites for Fortune 500 companies (some of them Fortune 50 companies), the get Apache to serve static content while Tomcat only takes care of servlets and JSPs

The real trick is getting Apache to serve all of the static content, and getting tomcat to deal with only servlets and jsps. I notice in all of the documentation I find for mod_jk, an entire directory (/examples/* being everyone's favourite) is mapped to Tomcat, so that even requests for images

Having proxy_ajp included in httpd v2.0 would be a good thing - there is a base of users for it (with it's more advanced handling of things like indicating secure connections, etc it's useful). Hmm. I'd include rather in tomcat distribution than httpd-2.0. That seems to be way more

I don't know how much I can stress this without sounding pedantic, but it's stuff like this that really does make a difference in how easily I can sell Apache/Tomcat to my clients as opposed to iPlanet/WebLogic or (shudder) IIS/something-lame. -Manni -Original Message- From: Manni
