LB RightScale tools install v9 [rev 2]

• Added application/x-javascript to the list of deflatable files.
• Added a new option to enable mod_jk in the apache config script.
• Fixed a potential security issue.  "For security reasons it is strongly recommended that JkMount is used to pass all requests to Tomcat by default and JkUnMount is used to explicitly exclude static content to be served by httpd." -- TomCat documentation.
• apache_vhost_config.rb: Since only one ErrorLog can exist in each Apache vhost, we now send the ErrorLog to syslog, where it splits it into two files -- one to local and the other to remote.

WEB apache base install v6 [rev 3]

• Support has been added for HAproxy so that it can now be monitored.  You can group the server by put '.' followed by a number (eg. i-abc1234.1, i-abc1234.2). In order to use an alert, you must use server1 and/or server2 as the ServerName in HAproxy.  Since we don't support dynamic alert metrics, you can only use these two (static) metrics to set up the alert/escalation.
