Mark, Great fix! That worked perfectly for the redirection of port 80 to 8080. However, it didn't fix the problem with IP based authentication. Here's a little more information about our setup. We are trying to use EZProxy in conjunction with IP based authentication to give access to our dissertations. The behavior of a proxied request is basically the same as it was when we omitted the port number before. We can see the item within DSpace, but we can't download the file.
Any ideas?

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. http://rimuhosting.com/mod_jk2_and_mod_proxy_ajp.jsp Mark On Sat, Feb 13, 2010 at 6:59 AM, Jason Fowler <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm having a bit of a problem.
