# Make sure you've got the "healthcheck" pipeline entry in your [proxy|account|container|object]-server.conf:

[pipeline:main]
pipeline = catch_errors healthcheck cache ratelimit auth proxy-server

# And that you've added the filter for it as well (in the same config of course):

[filter:healthcheck]
use = egg:swift#healthcheck

# Now reload the service and you're ready to roll:

syn@masada:~$ nc proxy1.masada 80 -vv
Connection to proxy1.masada 80 port [tcp/www] succeeded!
