thanks for the quick replay . 

since we only route traffic to 1 out of our 10 servers cluster , i was wondering
why there are no exception / errors on the tomcat servers that get their traffic
directly from the layer 4 load balancing , when i look at the tomcat access logs
i dont see any 408 error requests. 

is there a recommended  sniffer tool / unix command i can use to check if those
408 errors also occur on server that do not get their traffic from haproxy ? 

that way i can be sure haproxy has just expose a problem that was always there
and we were not a ware of it . 


thanks in advanced .
