I'm gonna install apache+mod_jk+tomcat in openSuse 10.3, but according to the howto's I've seen on the internet, I should create a virtual host in apache in order to make it work. In my experience in other distros (Ubuntu, CentOs), this is not necessary... then... should I create that virtual host? ( i'm asking this because other guy I met couldn't make it work...)

If you're going to use Apache etc as delivered in OpenSuse (instead of
compiling yourself, or using "generic" packages), this question may
have a lot more to do with how Apache etc are configured in OpenSuse
by default -- and if I remember correctly, understanding that took
quite some time and research.

If you're going to work with the OpenSuse way of doing things, take the
time to learn it, and you'll find what is the proper way to get the
configuration you like. On the other hand, if you'd like to have
others (people not working with OpenSuse) understand what is going
on, then you'll more or less ditch the Apache/Tomcat environment
distributed with OpenSuse and install the generic packages.

This is not to say that the OpenSuse way of doing things is bad in
itself; they're made pretty interesting integration work. It's just
that it's different enough, that the instinctive recommendations
by people familiar with generic Apache&Tomcat installations
often do not work as such.
