It might help to provide a link to the docs you're trying to work from, and
ask specific questions if something is unclear.  At some point in the
distant past, I did manage to get Apache and Tomcat working together on
HP-UX, but it took a couple of days taking very detailed notes, studying log
files, and restarting often.  At least you're not starting with HP's often
"interesting" Apache config!  The good news is that once it works, you can
pretty much ignore it.

My initial thought is that Apache 1.3 and Tomcat 5 are probably getting too
far apart to be compatible, but that's just a suspicion.  Have you read
anything that suggests that this combination has been made to work together?

As you mention, the jk/binaries/linux folder is empty, so I backed up a
couple to:
http://apache.bestwebcover.com/jakarta/tomcat-connectors/jk/

And... it says:
Apache-Tomcat mod_jk 1.2
This version of mod_jk 1.2 can be used with Tomcat 3.3.x, 4.0.x and 4.1.x

Maybe the docs just haven't been updated, but that isn't comforting if
you're trying to use it with Tomcat 5.

My advice would be to grab the source from the above link and see if you can
compile it on Redhat 9.  Then you'll have the mod_jk.so file you need. Then
start over and change only one thing at a time.  When you run into a snag,
post what you did so far and what your config files look like.  If it's
possible to do, someone here can probably help you do it.

If someone's really bored, maybe a grid that shows what
OS/Apache/connector/Tomcat combinations are known to work would be a good
project. :)
