[Sks-devel] HAproxy for reverse proxy

[Dinko Korunic]

Hi,

If anybody is interested in how to use HAproxy for reverse proxying HKP
(which seems to become mandatory to be able to participate in
pool.sks-keyservers.net) instead of Apache, Lighttpd or Nginx, I'm
pasting a simple conf that should get you started:

global
        daemon
        maxconn 256

defaults
        mode http
        maxconn 256
        timeout client 60s
        timeout server 60s
        timeout queue 60s
        timeout connect 4s
        timeout http-request 5s
        option http-server-close
        retries 3

listen hkp 161.53.2.219:11371
        mode http
        http-response set-header Via 1.1\ pks.aaiedu.hr:11371\ (HAproxy)
        server sks1 127.0.0.1:11371 maxconn 256

listen stats 127.0.0.1:8888
        stats uri /

Let me know if you have any questions regarding this. Of course, this
requires sks to have the following line in sksconf:

hkp_address: 127.0.0.1


Kind regards,
D.
