I think my idea would be scenario 4.)

I want to:
1.) Open a browser and write Tomcat application's address
(localhost:8080/myapp);
2.) Write username and password in login fields of the application; 3.) Save credentials in session after successful login;
4.)
Have link to completely separate application on newly opened page; 5.)
When link is clicked, request should be sent that contains row:
"Authorization: Basic QWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ=="
Login username and password would be the same for both applications.
On this way, I don't need to type username and password again;
6.)
From now on, php application is on-board and Tomcat can be forgotten (it
remains reachable only via browser's Back button);

The question is still, why was it even there in the first place ?

I will look now after httpd that you mentioned, awarnier.

Hi.
From what you write above, there is still a part that you do not understand properly. I would recommend that, before you start spending time on looking up httpd or designing your application, you first do as follows :
- get Firefox
- install the plugin named "HttpFox"
- in Firefox, start HttpFox
- look in the HttpFox window, to see what happens between the browser and the server
- then access your php application server
- look in the HttpFox window
- login
- look again in the HttpFox window
- in the browser, go to www.google.com
- look in the HttpFox window
- in the browser, go back to the php application
  (Oh, you are logged in again, without re-entering user-id/password !)
  (even if you force a reload of the page)
- look in the HttpFox window
