Always give details unless you have security/privacy concerns.  It's
just as to type d (or M-x add-to-kill-file ;) on a 50 line post as on
a 5 line post.  See the BUGS files in GCC or any Emacsen for further info.

If you're consistently frothy and people get annoyed, you'll
(hopefully) get private warnings and (eventually) start seeing public
*plonk*s; it's hard to seriously annoy people on the internet by being
verbose (unless you're malicious to the point of DoS).

mod_rewrite?

Try it that way, then.

SSL should be transparent to HTTP applications, just as telnet vs. ssh
is transparent to the remote shell.  That doesn't mean you don't have
to configure the Apache server properly; it just means I don't see why
Tomcat or Cocoon should care (unless they're a lot more integrated
with the Apache server than I'd like to think).
