The steps to configure Tomcat for domain name forwarding are as follows:

  1. Open the installation directory of Tomcat and locate the server.xml file in the conf directory.
  2. Tag, add a new label, and write the domain name to forward within it.
    For example:
    yourdomain.com
  3. Save the server.xml file and restart the Tomcat server.
  4. Create a folder named ‘ROOT’ in the webapps directory (if it does not exist) and place the website files to be forwarded into that folder.
  5. In the context of your application, allow only requests from the remote host with the IP address 192.168.1.100.
  6. Save the context.xml file and restart the Tomcat server.

After completing the above steps, Tomcat will forward requests for the specified domain to the corresponding application or server. Please note that the specific configurations in the above steps may vary depending on the version of Tomcat and the operating system being used, so it is recommended to adjust accordingly based on the specific circumstances.
