We tried transparent proxying with Cisco's here and the result was 'no
way'. We have a service contract with Cisco and when attempting to
configure as per the instructions in the FAQ, we got stumped.

Upon consulting Cisco, they stated that there was no way this approach to
transparent proxying would work, mentioning something about the
router clobbering the packet header in such a way that Squid couldnt deal
with it.
