I just want to correct you a little bit. You did investigate this and you
found someone who had set up the "Tomcat/Apache Warp connector" to deal
with the proxy instead of "ProxyRequest On".  You asked that if I got this
to work I should send back information on how to set it up. Unfortunately,
I never got back to it after my initial attempt. Most of our data sets are
being served by LAS version 5 so the need to fix this wasn't dire, and of
course this dropped off of my priority list.
