Re: ProxyPass/ProxyPassreverse shared cookies?

Okay since im not drowning in solutions for using mod proxy. I'll try to 

use mod jk. But before  I do so I have the following question:

How do I setup Apache HTTP to only forward to certain parts of tomcat, 

depending on incomming network. Currently I have 2 application, which 

needs to share a cookie these two show be available from out side using 

the following mapping:

{pseudo syntax}
mydomain.dk  /tomcat/appA
forum.mydomain.dk /tomcat/appB

But for some of the administrative tasks I have some admin 

applications(tomcat defaults), these I do not want to be available from 

the mydomain.dk but only via the internal ip address.

how do I do this?

Thanks in advance..

Hmm, well because I'd like the configuration to be simple (which it 

arent really now). And wanted it to be at apache HTTP configured not 

a mix of HTTP and tomcat.. So no real arguments, I guess I could 

change it. However the only thing bothering me now are cookies. So 

if the only way are mod_jk i'll have to take that i guess?

I'm not completely sure if the cookie problem is generated by the 

proxy module or not, the proxy directives should simply 'route' the 

connection to tomcat and back, I was just wondering the reason to 

stick to a proxy configuration where a mod_jk one would have been 

much simpler.

It started out a bit simpler sticking to proxy... Where as mod_jk had 

changes two places both in tomcat and http.

But if you connect directly with Tomcat (by using the :8080 port in 

the URL) and have no trouble with the cookies bit, I suppose the 

problem does lies in the proxy module.

If I connect directly to tomcat, I do get my cookies. It's the same 

with jetty, which Im using for development. So it seems that it's 

probably my configuration of the proxy module thats lacking something. 

I just wonder what im doing wrong.
