Template for failure of doing tasks by technicians
Dear all There is a question that I have.

AJP (mod_jk) port configuration
I would like to use Apache HTTPS server to proxy ServiceDesk outside our firewall (for contract support people, home, and blackberry access.) I have several Tomcat/JBoss applications that I proxy through Apache's mod_jk 1.3 (Jakarta Connector) module. This works well because 1) it uses an alternate port that directly connects to the application, 2) it handles variable (POST & GET) well, 3) it's faster than mod_proxy, 4) it introduces few problems than mod_proxy, and 5) it can be on HTTPS port 443

Solution to multi-language issue?
I'm involved in a new project at my company that will give support to English, Spanish and Portuguese speaking countries. The main concern we have at the moment is how can we provide the Service Catalog in those 3 languages. One of the solution was to directly edit categories as Networking/ Redes / Rede, but we would end up with very long strings and we don't like how it looks. We are aiming for simplicity. So, what I am looking for is for any examples that you may have if you had this situation
Change Management
I have two suggestions to improve the Change Management module: 1. In the "Change - Additional Fields" section, under Pick-List, can the list be configured to be a multi-select list? For example, holding CTRL key to select multiple items, or provide a check-box? Also, can you add the ability to re-order the pick list items? There is no auto-sort or alphabetize option, so adding new items later will place them at the bottom. 2. Add the ability to customize the new change form, to rearrange the

Adding Values with two Languages
Hi, as SD+ is a multi -Language application , I think it will be very good idea to have an option to add the values of master data in English and another selective language. for example : the Category name currently is entered in one field so it must be entered in one language (English for example), now when the user switch to another language , all menus will be changed to that language but the master data appears in "English". so I suggest to have two fields for all master data entry one field
