Wls 6.0 httpproxyservlet problems

Question

We're trying to set up a weblogic 6 box to be able to have multiple
managed servers on one machine, fed by a proxy server. The goal is to
have the site requests come in through port 80 (in production), but
still go to the individual managed servers, looking at different ports
-- no money for clustering :(
we decided to stick with wls as our web server as most of the site is
dynamic anyway.
I have the following mapping code in my web.xml file of the proxy
server
<!-- DOCTYPE web-app PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web
Application 1.2//EN"
"file:///weblogic/dev/myserver/servlet2.2/WEB-INF/web-jar.dtd"-->
<web-app>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>StudentEmploymentProxy</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/sep/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>StudentEmploymentProxy</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>weblogic.t3.srvr.HttpProxyServlet</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>redirectURL</param-name>
<param-value>studentemployment:9001</param-value>
</init-param>
</servlet>
that's all that's in the default app of the proxy server. the
individual apps have only the basic web.xml
file and a small .jsp test page that is just html.
so here's the summary:
server 1:
proxyserver (dns proxy), listening on port 8001, with a default
application called proxy that has the
above mappings
server 2:
studentemploymentserver (dns studentemployment), listening on port
9001, with a default application
called studentemployment
url call:
http://proxy:8001/sep/studentemployment.jsp
getting a 404 error, not sure what the h is going on.
any guidance much appreciated.
