Hello.

I'm working with some MS guys at the moment. Obviously this is quite 
difficult as it's like trying to talk to a brick at times ('IIS is very 
friendly', they said :-). however they'd like me to run tomcat on port 443 
without the SSL engine. They want to use their own SSL accelarator however 
this doesn't quite work with tomcat. I think tomcat is right but this is 
what's happening:

Rser connects to a url via https. Tomcat creates a redirect but makes it like 
this:

http://host:443/whatever.jsp

It must detect that as it isn't doing the SSL, and the SSL accelarator has 
decoded the SSL stream from the user, the connection is insecure and it 
therefore uses HTTP and not HTTPS.

Is there anyway to override this behaviour?

Thanks
