The Jakarta Tomcat Connector mod_jk module is provided as a connector from Apache Tomcat source, Jetty (and obviously Tomcat) is fully compatible with this connector. This module is avaiable when you download the Tomcat source, but also is available for download separately, refer to the following URL for the proper version for your system.

In addition to the mod_jk you will require a workers.properties file, also available with the Apache Tomcat source distribution. This properties file tells the mod_jk plugin how to connect to the Geronimo server. For a detailed explanation on all the available options for configuring the Jakarta Tomcat Connector visit the following URL:
