All connectors all come bundled with Tomcat. It looks like the HTTP connector is being discussed, here, which is part of Tomcat as well. > Furthermore, is this something to be used for connecting to other > pieces of software like apache? Some connectors (such as the ajp13 ones) require another piece of software to be installed somewhere else such as a web server. If you've heard of mod_jk, that's a package that needs to be installed into a web server in order to communicate with the (ajp13) connector in Tomcat. Though mod_jk is separate, the connector that talks to it is still included with Tomcat. > I'm looking to configure tomcat to run in standalone mode, and not > connect it to Apache [httpd] at all. Then you will want to use either the HTTP or HTTPS connector (or both). You can ignore all the ajp13 stuff above... I was just mentioning it to give you some perspective. > Does this seem reasonable? Absolutely. In fact, most of the voices on this list will tell you that adding Apache httpd into the mix doesn't add any value. Perhaps it's true for them, but Apache httpd definitely helps me with my production deployments. > Oh, and just to be clear, this machine has two network cards and two > ip addresses corresponding to the two ip names. Hence the need to bind to a specific NIC ;) - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGI+NT9CaO5/Lv0PARAgyYAJ9fpev+JFAR0wC+aa/qcSGX1OLJxACfZJDR NF8POxTUbvejwuk2OQWOcVw= =2qXF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
