Hello,
I'm trying to install HAproxy 1.5 for port forwarding like:

INTERNET -> 80.80.80.80:22(HAproxy)->75.2.1.1:22

My configs:
#-------------------------------------
global
log 127.0.0.1 local2 info
chroot /var/lib/haproxy
pidfile /var/run/haproxy.pid
maxconn 256
maxsslconn 256
user haproxy
group haproxy
daemon

defaults

mode tcp
log global
timeout connect 10s
timeout client 30s
timeout server 30s

# define frontend and backend servers

frontend test_server
bind *:22
default_backend backend_servers

backend backend_servers
server test1 75.2.1.1:22 check
#----------------------------------------------

After that I'm testing (from remote host):
nc 75.2.1.1 22
Answer(response):
> SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_5.3

But if I try:
nc 80.80.80.80 22
> --- EMPTY

Could you clarify how to check HAproxy forwarding?

Thank you.

[SOLVED]

easy on as server set nc -L port
and as client nc server port.

and sure you have to have right config for HAproxy.
