Hi Expert, After a long period once again i need your help, actually i am kind of stuck so please help I have to forward my incoming ssl request to other host who is again on ssl
both end points are ssl terminated are using their own certificates, so it is possible? if yes then please help me getting its configuration and i am very well aware that same can be done in nginx PS: I am using 1.5.X version of HAproxy.
