tomcat5+apache2 Fedora Core 6 integration

I'm trying to use Virutal hosting or mod_jk to have tomcat run through apache for .jsp file requests. Plus, this all need to take place out of public_html folders in users home dir.

any ideas?

I've been trying the mod_jk approach, but it's been painstakingly hard.

I spent years fighting with mod_jk and hated it. I've setup the mod_jk connector at least 20 times and it is just as hard every single time.

And so when I learned how to use mod_rewrite to do what I needed, I was very happy. And I also figured out that there are much better app servers than Tomcat and I can use mod_rewrite with any app server I like.

Here is one article about mod_rewrite, but I know there are probably easier tutorials:

seems a little complicating
