I am running Apache 2.3 on 6.2 (amd64) and I have no problems with it. I am using Tomcat 5.5.x and I connect using mod_jk. It works fine. I also tried mod_proxy_ajp, to no avail. The connection simply hangs, timing out in the browser. There is no error log whatsoever indicating the problem. It might be a configuration error though. I filed a problem report (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=ports/106445), but there was no reaction to it. With regard to jails, I have played around with ezjails, but did not yet utilize it with Tomcat or Apache. Niek
