logging
Since haproxy is issuing new http requests the backend systems sees haproxy as the client. To circumvent this put these two options in haproxy (eg. under defaults):
reqidel X-Forwarded-For #delete any existing x-forwarded-for headers befor option forwardfor injects its own option forwardfor #enable sending the X-Forwarded-For http header to the servers option httpclose
You also need to make the backend servers understand the X-Forwarded-For header:
apache
You can either use a mod to make apache interpret the X-Forwarded-for header as the real remote ip. For apache 2.2 use mod_rpaf, apache 2.3+ can use mod_remoteip. Otherwise you can rewrite the LogFormat's and replace "%h" (host) with "%{X-Forwarded-For}i"
glassfish
Configuration -> http service -> access logging -> Format : replace %client.name% with %header.x-forwarded-for%

SSL
Haproxy can not decrypt ssl connections, so if you need https you can set up an stunnel service in front of haproxy which decrypts the ssl and forwards the requests to haproxy. If you use the "proxy" protocol included in stunnel 4.45 and haproxy 1.5, stunnel can forward the clients IP adress to haproxy.
