Chris,

Well, one step closer to nirvana... You need to get Tomcat to run as 
if it is behind a proxy. Add these attributes to the Connector 
element in server.xml:

proxyName="mksearch.dev.webarch.net"
proxyPort="80"

Tomcat is will still operate on 8080, but the servlets its running 
will behave as if they are on the default port and drop the explicit 
port reference. I have tested this locally and it does the trick.

Best regards,

Phil
