You are right. If you are proxying Tomcat through Apache and Apache is setup to 
use the default HTTP port (80), then you won't need to include a port number in 
the URLs.

The default configuration for a stand-alone Tomcat is to use port 8080. We 
mostly run our servers under a stand-alone Tomcat. So, most of our examples 
include port 8080 in the URL.
