Jason, I would be using mod_proxy or more specifically mod_proxy_ajp for communicating between Apache and Tomcat via the ajp port/protocol on mod_rewrite/redirect. I suspect that your problem is that the client IP of the request to tomcat is that of the local machine, AJP will properly pass the header information.
