Downloaded and installed apache2.
There are two choices for the apache-to-tomcat connector, mod_jk and mod_jk2. Downloaded mod_jk2 which is nicely ant-driven, but alas it doesn't build at all. Nyet.
Downloaded and build mod_jk. It's now installed in my local apache2 configuration, and I've got apache2 to forward .jsp requests through it to tomcat, which processes them correctly. This is good.
Still got a problem with the context mappings - everything's in /xplus/stuff rather than the root. We need some way to indicate to apache that it should prefix every tomcat request the xplus context name.
