No there are no other ways. But it's far simpler to use mod_proxy_ajp than mod_jk

In theory, you should be able to write a Tomcat filter to do this and indeed I came across one [1]. Unfortunately when I tried it a couple of years ago I couldn't get it to fully work. That's a shame because using a full blown Apache server when a single Tomcat instance would suffice is overkill.

If anyone has more success let me know!

Actually, yes. I am sorry. That was not David. The topic I was talking about
is
http://www.nabble.com/URL-Rewriting-td13436253.html#a13436253

But anyway, you say "why not using mod_rewrite direcly?" Could you please be
more specific?
As I understand in order to use Apache's mod_rewrite I have to put Apache HTTPD as front-server and use mod_jk as Tomcat connector? Or is there any
other way?

I'm not sure David ever adviced to use Tuckey. I asked once but I got no clear answers but that OFBiz is already automatically rewriting url to be search engines friendly.
I'm not sure why you want to rewrite URLs but why not using mod_rewrite
direcly (though Tuckey should work also, I finally used mod_rewrite) ? Note also tha Google is less and less prone to errors while
indexing weird URLs.
