2) I each virtual host, you will need to turn on the rewrite engine
   then write a rule like
   ^/(.+) http://tomcathost:80/$1   [P,L]

The P means act as proxy
The L means stop processesing rules that follow.

I understand, that I simply make another https connection from apache to
tomcat, am I correct? This sounds great! 

Can you explain:
(1) how I make a certificate accepted by apache
(2) how I make mod_proxy redirect requests from port 443 to my tomcat on
port 8443 and request from port 80 to tomcat on port 8080

Thank you very much!
Michal
