No, Tomcat and IIS can be on different machines (the redirector is on the IIS server, but it is simply a DLL). One of the entries in the properties file used to configure the redirector is the name of the machine where Tomcat is running. This is how the redirector knows where to redirect the request to.

I'm new to the entire concept of Tomcat and I have a question which I have not found a clear explanation for. Does Tomcat have to be installed on the webserver? In other words, can I not just install the redirect filter (and not Tomcat, per se) on the webserver and have it connect (using ajpv13) to a back-end Tomcat server? I only want to install the redirect filter on the webserver. Does a working JVM need to be in place for the filter to work properly?
