JServ is an early method of connecting Apache and Tomcat, known as a
"connector".  JK is a more recent implementation of the connector protocol
that JServ used.

So, ApacheModuleJServ.dll is a Windows DLL that implements JServ.
mod_jk.dll is a Windows DLL that implements JK.  

The difference between mod_jserv.so and ApacheModuleJServ.dll is that one is
a 32-bit ELF shared object file (mod_jserv.so) intended for use on UNIX and
Linux systems, and ApacheModuleJServ.dll is a (32-bit??) Windows DLL
intended for use on Windows.  Both implement JServ.

Which one you need depends on you.  Most people are typicaly using JK (AJP13
protocol) to connect Apache and Tomcat on Windows.  That would be
mod_jk.dll.  I have several older tomcat instances that are still using
JServ (mod_jserv.so) just fine, so which you decide to use is up to you.
