Thanks John, will definitely take a look at using that.

Can anyone think of situations where haproxy can make use of detailed health checks returned instead of just blocking the port on the back end server?
I can't imagine that anything more would be necessary, but then I don't know haproxy so well that I can be sure of all its capabilities.
