Hi All,

I've been playing with this for a little while now and before the all in front of me and my head meet I was wondering if someone else could shed some light on this for me please.

First off let me give you a over view of the network setup:
My Virtual Machine has two interfaces eth0 has two addresses 192.168.82.9/18 and 192.168.82.10/18. 192.168.82.9 is going to be for the management of the server and 192.168.82.10 is what the website will respond too. eth1 has a network of its own 10.0.0.0/24 and I have two Debian Apache web servers that are connected to this network 10.0.0.10 and 10.0.0.20.
If this was a real world setup I might have put the management address (192.168.82.9) on a different port but I didn't think of that at the time of setting this up but I may do that later.

Second what have I done!
Well this is a brand new install of Centos6.2 minimal fully patched and both HAProxy and STunnel downloaded and installed. I'm using the devel version of HAProxy but thats a different story and version 4.53 of STunnel.

Now the problem.
Both seem to work perfectly as-long as I don't want to know who is accessing my site which make it next to useless. However, I can get HAProxy to report the IP Address of the visitor as long as you visit the HTTP page on port 80 as per my configuration file. I can also get STunnel to work with HAProxy but as soon as I enable 'protocol = proxy' the HTTPS side breaks and all I get in my browser is '400 Bad Request Your browser sent an invalid request'. I've played with everything I can thing of and I still cant get a Transparent STunnel>HAProxy solution working correctly.
