hi: As far as have seen there is no SSL support for AJP/1.3 - the trafic is in clear between the Apache and tomcat using mod_jk.
I guess with apache 2 you can use mod_proxy and ssl to a tomcat using the http connector with ssl. If you have apache and tomcat on separate servers you might have to look at stunnel to encrypt the traffic.
