OK, but that doesn't fit into your first mail. So here is the proposed solution:
LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so RewriteEngine On RewriteRule /tomcat/(.*) /$1 [E=JK_WORKER_NAME:myworker,H=jakarta-servlet,PT] The RewriteRule line extends until "PT]" This will activate JK forwarding via a worker called myworker (you can replace it by the name of your worker) for everything that starts with /tomcat/ and also changes the forwarding URL by stripping the leading "/tomcat". FOR Apache we use mod_rewrite for those tricks, because it is a modular server and there exists many usefuk modules. For IIS this kind of ability is already build into the JK isapi plugin. Is that what you are looking for? Note that now we don't replace /tomcat by /servlet-examples, so a working request now would be /tomcat/servlet-example/something.
