Aha, you have figured out what I am trying to do then, and now this email will get a bit more complex... I'm using Apache2 and mod_jk to connect to Tomcat. The reason I need the webapp deployed at two different URL's in Tomcat is that I need two different <Location> blocks in Apache to deal with two different ways of authenticating users. Like you said though, I haven't found a way to do this using mod_jk, which would be the best and simplest way to do it otherwise. So, I looked into mod_rewrite, and successfully managed to set it up so that I can reach the webapp from two different URL's, and mod_rewite then forwards to the same JkMount. However, the mod_rewrite directives are evaluated very early in the connection process, before any <Location> blocks are considered. This means that by the time Apache starts thinking about which <Location> block to use, the URL has already been rewritten, and so the same block is considered no matter which initial URL was used by the user, effectively bypassing the extra <Location> I wanted them to go through. So I gave up on the mod_rewrite, and started considering if I could deploy the same context at two different URL's in Tomcat instead, but if anybody has a better idea which might work please speak up!
