Hi again,
I've yet to try the configs when i get to work today. REALLY hope it
works. :) , just one other question, what are the benefits of using mod_jk
instead of "PROXYPASS" ? Surely they created mod_jk for a reason, maybe one
reason might be it's loadbalancing feature? It's cool to that feature but i
just want to know the difference in case plan A fails.
You guys have been very helpful,
Paul Tan
