Aah.., I see , it’s been awhile I have this, I seem to vaguely remember about this now.

Thanks Jarno, I appreciate your help very much! —imam On Fri, Oct 19, 2018 at 12:02 AM Jarno Huuskonen <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > On Thu, Oct 18, Imam Toufique wrote: > > *[root@crsplabnet2 examples]# haproxy -c -V -f /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg* > > *Configuration file is valid* > > > > *when trying to start HA proxy, i see the following:* > > > > *[root@crsplabnet2 examples]# haproxy -D -f /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg -p > > /var/run/haproxy.pid* > > *[ALERT] 290/234618 (5889) : Starting frontend www-ssh-proxy: cannot bind > > socket [0.0.0.0:22 <http://0.0.0.0:22>]* > > Do you have sshd already running on the haproxy server ? > (Use netstat -tunapl / ss (something like ss -tlnp '( dport = :ssh or > sport = :ssh )') > to see if sshd is already listening on port 22). > > If you've sshd running on port 22 then you have to use different port or > ipaddress for sshd / haproxy(www-ssh-proxy) > > -Jarno > > -- > Jarno Huuskonen > -- Regards, *Imam Toufique* *213-700-5485*
