Howdy, You don't have to have Apache in front. Any load-balancer will do. Let me redirect you to the tomcat 5 clustering page, as it's more recent, and I think easier to follow: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/cluster-howto.html
Tomcat 5's clustering support is more built-in than tomcat 4's. Filip and others will answer questions if you actually set up an environment and run into problems.
