Another question, in particular about this: "It's not a redirect. The request data is converted to the AJP13 binary protocol which is received by an AJP connector in Tomcat."
How is the request data passed? It is a Remore Procedure Call, an IP port connection, or something else? _______________________________________________________________________________________ «¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤» _______________________________________________________________________________________ Rick Curry Common Services - Software Development E2 - 066, MS 5210 972-431-9178 (Voice) 972-585-7585 (Pager) To send a (short) Text Message to my Pager: 9725857...@page.metrocall.com -----Original Message----- From: Pid [mailto:p...@pidster.com] Sent: Monday, November 01, 2010 5:40 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Re: ISAPI Redirector Work-Flow On 01/11/2010 21:48, Richard G Curry wrote: > I am trying to understand how the ISAPI Redirector functions at an > overview level but deeper than this: The request comes into IIS where > the ISAPI Redirector filter sends the servlet and JSP requests to the > Tomcat server.
