I guess most installations of Apache and Tomcat are using the AJP protocol for communication between the Apache frontend and Tomcat backend. There are two similar approaches with two different Apache modules: mod_jk or the newer mod_proxy_ajp module. I've used mod_proxy_ajp for a few installations recently and it works without problems. Another advantage is that it's part of the Apache 2.2 standard modules. For both solutions you basically have to tell Apache which URLs or URL patterns it should forward to your Tomcat backend for processing of these requests. I think you'll find enough tutorials and examples on the intenert. Maybe there are comletely different approaches too, but in my opinion mod_proxy_ajp is really straight forward and not too hard to configure.
