Hello.
I like HAproxy very much. I use it at work and it works like a charm.
However i am still quite new to all of this...
My question is:
I need to set up a proxy simply for browsing showing the IP of the
server.
My collegue needs it and has shown me how he wants just to setup a
proxy in his firefox...
How can i make HAproxy do this? ( i would love to use HAproxy instead
of something else )
I tried to look in the docs, but could not find it. Most likeliy
because i dont know where to look.
My only attempt so far has been to use the example in option-
http_proxy.cfg that kinda looked like what i needed..
When i tried to insert my ip and port of the proxy into firefox i get
a 503.
The output from HAproxy is.
