Install base software and apache (to have something to proxy)

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y curl build-essential libpcre3-dev libssl-dev apache2

Install haproxy

export HAPROXY_VERSION=haproxy-1.5-dev18
curl -O http://haproxy.1wt.eu/download/1.5/src/devel/$HAPROXY_VERSION.tar.gz
tar zxf $HAPROXY_VERSION.tar.gz

Setup Ubuntu's official haproxy init.d script for 12.04

curl -O http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/precise/haproxy/precise/download/head:/haproxy.init-20090727115323-3c2mw7iu0du8tdiw-208/haproxy.init
sed -i 's/PATH=/PATH=\/usr\/local\/sbin:/' haproxy.init

sudo mv haproxy.init /etc/init.d/haproxy
sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/haproxy

Setup chroot and haproxy configuration

sudo addgroup --system haproxy
sudo adduser --system --no-create-home --ingroup haproxy haproxy
sudo mkdir /opt/haproxy
sudo chown haproxy:haproxy /opt/haproxy/
sudo chmod a-w /opt/haproxy/

CA, server and client certificate setup. This is a slightly tweaked form of https://github.com/exceliance/haproxy/blob/master/blog/ssl_client_certificate_management_at_application_level/ca.sh for only the valid client certificate, which also makes use of the -subj commandline option to avoid re-typing those values.

export SUBJECT='/C=US/ST=California/L=San Francisco/[email protected]'

# certificate authority creation
openssl genrsa -out ca.key 4096
openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -key ca.key -out ca.crt -subj "$SUBJECT"

# server certificate creation
openssl genrsa -out server.key 1024
openssl req -new -key server.key -out server.csr -subj "$SUBJECT"
openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in server.csr -CA ca.crt -CAkey ca.key -set_serial 01 -out server.crt

# client certificate creation
openssl genrsa -out client.key 1024
openssl req -new -key client.key -out client.csr -subj "$SUBJECT"
openssl x509 -req -days 365 -in client.csr -CA ca.crt -CAkey ca.key -set_serial 02 -out client.crt

cat server.crt server.key > server.pem
sudo cp server.pem /etc/haproxy/server.pem
sudo cp ca.crt /etc/haproxy/ca.crt

Start haproxy and test it:

sudo /etc/init.d/haproxy start
openssl s_client -connect localhost:443 -cert client.crt -key client.key

This gives me:

Note the two error lines:

This

curl -vk --key client.key --cert client.crt https://localhost

gives me a similar error:
