It is definitely "harder" to configure, though, since a separate configuration file is usually used. As I don't use SSL between httpd and Tomcat this isn't much of an issue for me, but connecting httpd->Tomcat via SSL is trivial with mod_proxy_http (and not with mod_jk) while forwarding SSL info from httpd -> Tomcat (while still using an unencrypted channel) is trivial in mod_jk but more difficult with mod_proxy_http. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlBYzKUACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBx0QCglrPz2MZLBeqeKp8LivAvLMqj CosAnirMA2WNiN03BGvO6FthJ07LfWNK =jDfk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
