Hi, I am getting ready to deploy the Second Instance of Tomcat on the same server using different IP addresses.
\Tomcat\Instance1 (IP Address: xx.xx.xx.x1) \Tomcat\Instance2 (IP Address: xx.xx.xx.x2) I have a few question, see below: 1) For the Tomcat server ports, I will be using the Connector Port and Redirect port to bind it to a specific IP address by using "address="xx.xx.xx.xx"". Is there a way to use the same Shutdown Port and AJP Port to bind it to a different IP address? Or do I have to change the Shutdown and AJP port number. 2) Keystore: a. I am going to be using https, can I use the same .keystore to import the certificate? b. If I move the .keystore to another location outside of Tomcat home, will Tomcat be able to see the .keystore if I specify the path within the server.xml file for .keystore path? c. Should I create a new .keystore for the new instance? d. What is the best practice for this? 3) Does anyone know a way to encrypt the clear-text passwords specified in tom-user.xml for the Tomcat manager and server.xml file for .keystore? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
