I need to contact applications through a socks or http proxy. My current setup looks like this but only works when the Computer haproxy runs on has direct Internet connection (which is not the case in our datacenter, I tried this at home)
frontend main bind *:8000 acl is_extweb1 path_beg -i /policies acl is_extweb2 path_beg -i /produkte use_backend externalweb1 if is_extweb1 use_backend externalweb2 if is_extweb2 backend externalweb1 server static www.google.com:80 check backend externalweb2 server static www.gmx.net:80 check There is an SO post which addresses the same question and provides some more details: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47605766/use-haproxy-as-an-reverse-proxy-with-an-application-behind-internet-proxy
