Pete, I know it can be done, but I don't have the experience to tell you how.
What will work is to set up a vpn/encrypted connection between the two machines. Googling I found this site: http://ringstrom.mine.nu/ipsec_tunnel/ Also I saw a lot of hits on FreeSwan. As for if it can be done from Apache to Tomcat I am unsure.
