That is an unusual requirement, because usually both tomcat and Apache are running on the same computer or at least running in the same LAN sub-net.

Thanks for your reply.
We need to implement end to end encryption. I do not have an option with
respect to the OS. I have Windows 2000 as our OS for both the webserver and
app server. Due to end to end encryption, we have to secure the
communication between the webserver and app server.
I have heard about mod_ssl but have not used it. Would that be an option to secure the communication between apache and tomcat. Your opinion is highly appreciated.

There isn't an SSL version of either the mod_jk or jk2 connector. Since JK and JK2 don't ever communicate with a client, there's really no need. You might be able to setup a tunnel using stunnel or similar, but on Windows that will be problematic.

Dear friends, I am a newbie and have to set up a secure enviroment between tomcat
and
apache.
Can someone tell me which is the stable production ssl version of tomcat and apache? Is there a ssl version of mod_jk or mod_j2 connector?
If
no which connector should we use? Where can I get a built version of the webserver, app server and the connectors that work with each other for a windows 2000 environment. Thanks Ramanan
