You don't have to worry about it. Read about redirectPort attribute at http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/http.html

Thanks, mate.
It solves 90% of our problems.

But we still need to get tomcat ssl configuration inside a servlet. The reason: In our strange architecture (struts-flavour) a servlet is a wrapper for actions with states. Only some of these states have to be secured. Have anybody an idea how to get that information?

You can run an apache server in the front. And then use mod_rewrite (for specific URLs) to redirect users to secure pages. The application (and Tomcat) doesn't need to know anything about security in this scenario.
