(I'll assume by "apache" you really mean httpd, since both Tomcat and httpd are Apache products.) Let's turn the question around: do you really need httpd in front of Tomcat? There are certainly valid reasons for doing so (e.g., running PHP, poor man's load balancing, etc.), but is your environment one of those? If you do need to use httpd, can you get away with a single <Host> in Tomcat, and simply differentiate the varied requests via webapp name? (Using mod_rewrite might help here.) Another possibility is having a single source for your host setup, with some kind of script/program to generate both the httpd and Tomcat config files from that. (That could turn out to be a marketable product.) - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
