thanks Peter...
It is a shame because the gui is so nice. I had another issue before where it was overwriting the files and we needed to add a jrun line in and we just built an include for that and all was well but not working for this. The gui does have proxying on it but its going to the wrong place for this to work.

thanks and I will try the httpd list

If I edit the files manually it works fine but the issue is that the
leopard server over writes all the files if you make changes.
The main thing I need to add to apache is a proxypass and
proxypassreverse which there is an entry for in the xserve gui but it
doesnt add them correctly and does not work.

Typical Apple - a superb interface for the common operations, actively broken for the uncommon ones. You'll probably have more luck on an httpd list than a Tomcat list for this one, as most people on this list hook httpd and Tomcat together using AJP rather than by proxying. That configuration is sufficiently complex that I suspect Apple won't have coded for it, though you might want to check.

Anyone have any ideas for me?

The main answers you'll get on here are, I suspect, "Don't use xserve" or "Don't use the pre-packaged server applications". I'm in the second camp. You almost certainly won't be able to get the config you need using Apple's GUI; Apple's GUI is overwriting the correct config; you probably can't ensure that nobody ever uses Apple's GUI to make config changes; so the way to a system that works and keeps working is to install versions of the applications that can't have their config overwritten at whim.
