[opencms-dev] Apache httpd in front of Tomcat in 2010, yes or no?

[Tim Daschner]

We have other virtual hosts that do not run under tomcat. Hence, where I
work, we do need an independent web server. I dont see any major problems
with what you have done, but I love our set up of being able to handle all
http requests via apache web server.
