Hi, We'd like to implement something that knows how to handle a custom communication protocol, and allows us to pass requests down to Tomcats (or a JKHandler implementation). Currently we have a class on the Apache machine which listens on a port, opens a socket for the device, wraps each request as an http request, and sends it to Apache for load balancing between the Tomcat servers. Is there a way to integrate this directly into Apache and increase performance etc.? cheers, David --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
