Hi,

For a variety of reasons, we proxy access to tomcat through apache.  Using
4.1.31, ssl connections to apache were proxied as regular http to tomcat, and
everything worked as expected.  But with 5.5.9 the browser/server connection
goes back to regular http even through the initial GET was sent ssl.  Does
v5.5.9 of tomcat itself need to talk ssl for this to work?  The proxy
redirects are certainly not now ssl: 

> ProxyPass                /pcounter  http://localhost:8081/pcounter
> ProxyPassReverse    /pcounter  http://localhost:8081/pcounter

Do I need to have tomcat support ssl in order to use https in the proxy, or
am I just missing an obvious but simpler step somewhere?

Thanks
