Hi,

In our setup we have a hardware load-balancer which forwards normal requests
to our cluster of Tomcat servers.  For SSL requests, the load balancer first
forwards to an hardware SSL accelerator and then on to one of our Tomcat
servers.  Each Tomcat instance has 2 connectors configured.

For normal requests, clients connect to load balancer on port 80 and the
load balancer then forwards the request to a Tomcat instance on port 8800.

For secure requests, clients connect to the load balancer on port 443, the
load balancer then forwards to the SSL accelerator and then the load
balancer forwards to a Tomcat instance on port 8801.

The problem I am having is that the getServerPort method *always* returns 80
for all requests even though I know they were received on either port 8800
or 8801 (netstat also confirms this).  If I connect directly to the servers
(http://server:8800), the port is correctly reported.

I can access the correct port by inspecting the incoming requests using
reflection (request.request.connector.port) but this is obviously far from
ideal (non-portable etc).

Does anyone have an idea why this is occurring or perhaps a way around the
problem ?

Thanks,
Ryan.
