Are the requests you are making for static resources or for dynamically created
output from servlets (or JSP pages)?
If the former, Tomcat's default file-serving mechanism will set the
Last-Modified header. If the output is being generated by a servlet or JSP
page, though, it is totally up to the application to set whatever headers it
wants. So, if you want to set a Last-Modified header, you must either do so
yourself or implement the HttpServlet.getLastModified() method.
