I get your point, HAProxy does not support using a "http/socks proxy". HAProxy intends to be "an HTTP reverse-proxy" retrieving resources from backend servers and the requests sent to a server are different from the ones sent to a "forward proxy". That being said HAProxy can still "pass" proxy requests to http/socks proxies if the client is configured to use a proxy. ++ > > Am 11.
