Correct. jsvc allows you to bind to low-numbered ports because jsvc runs with elevated privileges. > The counterintuitive bit for me is, port 443 is seemingly configured > twice. How so? > No need for iptables or httpd! Woot! jsvc offers better features, too, such as being able to re-start the service if it goes down unexpectedly, rotating stdout/stderr streams, etc. A reverse-proxy such as httpd is never necessary unless you want to do load-balancing. Especially when properly-configured, Tomcat can serve static content just as fast as Apache httpd. -chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
