Need help?

[Nikhil Kapoor]

Hi,

I hope u all are doing well. It feels great to be a part of haproxy community. 

Actually, I just wanted to deeply understand the code of haproxy. So just 
wanted to know which tool should i use in order to understand the code. Is it 
only gdb that you all use or any other?

Please help me as i am willing to contribute to haproxy. 

Regards
Nikhil Kapoor

Hello folks,

Did this feature ever go anywhere?

I'm trying to write some ACLs matching X-Forwarded-For headers against
a DNS record, and I *think* this set of patches is my only way to
achieve this, without using an external lookup process to modify ACLs
via the admin socket ...

Many thanks!
Jonathan
