I guess, in answer to my first question here, The security constrain
tells tomcat to use it's own ssl, it won't tell apache to use ssl...

I would totally use tomcat stand alone with ssl, if i can figure out how
not to loose objects created in the session before switching to https..
Any insight here?

Thanks.
