You need mod_jk or mod_webapp in order to hava Apache forward servlet
requests to Tomcat.

The major difference between mod_jk and mod_webapp is that mod_jk allows
for load balancing over multiple Tomcat instances while mod_webapp does
not. I hava also heard that mod_webapp should have that capability
(soon?) but does not have it now.

I have heard of people using Apache 2.x with Tomcat, but I have not done
that myself.
