Hi Chuck, Thanks for the response. Tried the port assignement bit a while back to 80 and 443. Got snarled up with them not playing just with the edits in server.xml. In OSX, IIRC, there were the usual issues because the ports less than 1024 are reserved for priviledged services, didn't want to run tomcat as root and it just got complicated. It seemed simpler to let the default Apache config do it's thing and hand off tomcat traffic via the connector. phil Phil McNamara CommonGround Softworks Inc.
