    Hello everybody,

    I would need some help achieving my goal.
    I'm currently trying to migrate from a Microsoft TMG2010 Setup to using PFSense with HA-PROXY as reverse proxy.
    So far, I managed to make it work when accessing an Apache server on the backend, but I get "HTTP 503" when trying to access some SharePoint backends.

    I followed this tutorial:  https://blog.briantruscott.com/how-to-serve-multiple-domains-from-a-single-public-ip-using-haproxy-on-pfsense/

    So, here are some details:

    OLD Setup:
    Internet –> PFSense with NAT --> TMG2010 --> SharePoint Server

    NEW Setup:
    Internet --> PFSENSE with HAPROXY --> SharePoint Server.

    Here is the HAPROXY configuration

    Automaticaly generated, dont edit manually.

    Thanks a lot for any help provided.

      OK, I've also done a Fiddler trace and I got:

      GET http://mydomain.com/favicon.ico HTTP/1.1
      Accept: /
      UA-CPU: AMD64
      Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
      User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko
      Host: blogspsext.rachita.net
      DNT: 1
      Connection: Keep-Alive

      HTTP/1.0 503 Service Unavailable
      Cache-Control: no-cache
      Connection: close
      Content-Type: text/html

      503 Service Unavailable

      No server is available to handle this request.

      So it seems it doesn't even reach the backend server.
      Is there any special configuration to use if the backend server should also be accessed internally via a host-header ?

      Thanks.

        Look like HAProxy doesn't see backend endpoint as alive.
        What it says on HAProxy -> Status page?

        Need full pfSense in a cloud? PM for details!

          In the status page for the SharePoint backend I get: Unauthorized.
          The site on SharePoint does allow anonymous access.

          Thanks
