Tomcat and IIS on separate machines

[MShopov]

Can anybody tell me if it is possible to link Tomcat with IIS when both
are running on two separate machines in a LAN.

In particular, Tomcat is running on a machine with Linux and IIS on a
machine with Windows Server 2003. I have already configured them when
both work on one machine.

It depends on what you mean by "link".
If it's simply redirect HTTP requests from one to the other WEB server
then yes it's possible.

Since he's had them both on one machine before, I assume he's referring
to an IIS-Tomcat connector. This is like a CGI link between Apache and
a regular scripting engine (PERL, PHP, etc.) but more sophisticated.

To the OP: sorry, I got nothing

Yes, that's what I mean, configuring IIS to forward some of the HTTP
request to a Tomcat server. Can you tell me where I can find any
resources or documentation, because all that I have found assume both
work on the same machine.

I finally got it to work! I'm using jk2 and have successfully
configured an IIS 6.0 - Tomcat 5.5 connection when both works on
different machines. If some has the same problem, feel free to write me.

Hi,

I only configure IIS with Tomcat on the same machine. How is it different for different machines? I'd like to put on separate machines, but didn't find the steps to follow.

I'd appreciate your help very much!
