Hi,

I am trying to setup a tomcat web app in a hosted environment.  The hosted 
environment uses apache and virtual hosts to pass requests for certain domains 
onto tomcat.  I want tomcat to handle the ssl instead of having apache decrypt 
and pass the http request to tomcat.  Do I need to use a connector in order to 
accomplish this or can I do it through strict apache configuration?

I initially tried mod_proxy which didn't tell tomcat about the ssl nature of 
the request and since I am using an http to https redirect in tomcat an 
infinite loop ensued.

I also tried mod_jk which worked but resulted in really bad performance 
problems that disappeared when I took away mod_jk.  

Can the connectors work and pass ssl requests unmodified to tomcat?

Currently running apache 2.2.4ssl with tomcat 5.5.23 and used mod_jk 1.2.21

Thanks for any help.
 
MG
