The proxy passed that as is to Tomcat since it starts with "/app"

Thanks.

As it happens, this particular customer was the first one in which I tried putting the only IP addresses with any business accessing manager into its remote address valve, instead of just commenting out the valve.

I tried that syntax in a browser, from an IP address that's allowed to access manager, and it got in.

I then tried it in a browser on my Chromebook, going through my cell phone's hotspot (which would definitely NOT have a permitted address), and it didn't even get to the sign-on panel before kicking me out with an error message.

ACK.

Providing the proxy and Tomcat are configured such that Tomcat sees the real client IP rather than the proxy IP that should be fine.
