Hi Willy, Thanks for clearing that up;

OK so now everything is working as expected; If I make a request from a host in my monitor subnet I always receive HTTP 200 so that tells my that HAProxy is running. Then from a host outside the monitor subnet to the monitor URI I can see how many backends HAProxy sees (any less than my configured 2 and it returns 503, which I have tested and is working perfectly now thanks!). One last point! :D I have noticed that if I point a browse to my monitor URI (not in the monitor subnet) when both my back ends are up I receive HTTP 200 OK "HAProxy: service ready." However if I refresh this page any quicker than about once a minute, it doesn't load? Check out this paste bin; http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=1xyNtcYq I am packet capturing on a client (172.22.0.220, not in the monitor subnet), browsing to the monitor uri (GET /oowahboh6eibooca) you can see at 14:08:24 I get a response "200 OK". Then I refresh the page 2 seconds later at 14:08:26.215969 and at 14:08:26.217989 I get a 404 response. This doesn't really matter as I will only be checking every 5 minutes or so, but I thought I should mentioned it in case it's a bug or I'm being silly again. Cheers, James.
