Hi all,

Does anyone know if it's possible with Tomcat to forward a request from
a Servlet to a url on a remote server.

More specifically I need to process an upload form on one server (using
Tomcat) and then pass the request along with the uploaded file to
another server (using PHP).  The details of why we need to do this
rather than handling the upload and processing all on the same server
are tedious and to say the least frustrating.  Take my word for it, we
need to.

Now as far as I know request forwarding is only feasible within the same
server that the original request is received on.  However I've come
across postings suggesting that Jetty can forward a request to a remote
server.  Does anyone have any idea of whether Tomcat may be able to
handle this in any way?

Thanks for any help,

Tref
