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 . Alon
