Hi, thanks for your response.
However, I would need some more explanation. Exactly where and how would I implement those "Tomcat Connectors" ? Apparently, all I have is the Tomcat engine itself. So, what I need is an actual "Apache" server. (Am I right?) Another thing : I've had my Tomcat running for a while now. The application which is running on the server is Sun's Identity Manager (IDM). If I now place an Apache in front of it, would that, in any way, damage the web application itself?
