Thank you so much for getting back to me about that. I have just been trying to read up on the mod_jk, and was hoping there was another option.
I do have one more question though related to running JSP with Tomcat. If I make my entire form JSP, and run from within Tomcat, and after it communicates with the payment server, an updated JSP page will be displayed (depending on the data received from the bank). Would I still have to make the connection between Apache and Tomcat? It would basically be a link from my website to the form, which will be JSP. I put up a dummy page and had a link to one of the example JSP that came with Tomcat. The link worked Ok, and the servlet ran fine. Thanks again!

They serve the same function, but they are entirely different connectors. It will take some reading to make the transition.
