Using tomcat as a proxy

[Donie Kelly]

Hi 

We have a HTTP application written in C and we now need to add https
support. I was thinking that we could use tomcat as a proxy to accept the
request on one side and forward it over https...

Any ideas on how we could do this? We could use apache using mod_proxy (I
think) but tomcat is already in use on the target machine so it would be
better to use it.

Thanks
