      Currently

      But actually

      There are two ways to configure apache to talk AJP13, mod_jk and mod_proxy_ajp. The latter is actually alot simpler (and by some reports more reliable).

      And

      You can use AJP13 (either mod_proxy_ajp or mod_jk) to get Apache to talk to FishEye without having to use AJP13 authentication.

      So

      1) Change the "AJPv13+Authentication" to include how to use mod_proxy_ajp. The equiv example is something like

      LoadModule proxy_ajp_module modules/mod_proxy_ajp.so
      
      
      ProxyPass /fisheye ajp://localhost:8009/
      

      2) Change the "Integrating+with+Other+Web+Servers" to mention that you could use ajp::// with ProxyPass instead http:// if thats your thing (there are not particular advanatged either way)

      And also, when using AJP (either mod_proxy_ajp or mod_jk) mention that you can use IIS (Windows' web server) to sit in front of FishEye instead of Apache
