Connection Lifetime Expired for Transparent Proxy

Hi,

I'm using Squid-2.2.STABLE5 on a i686/Linux (kernel 2.2.12) system. Up
till about yesterday, transparent proxying was working fine (using Cisco
for IP redirection and ipchains for port redirection). I made a couple of
changes (increased fd capacity, changed the value of
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range, and some I don't remember), and
now I'm getting error pages when I try to access Squid as a transparent
proxy.

The error page I get is the ff.:

------------------------------------------------------
ERROR

The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to retrieve the URL: N/A

The following error was encountered:

     Connection Lifetime Expired

Squid has terminated the request because it has exceeded the maximum
connection lifetime.

------------------------------------------------------

The hyperlink in the URL above is actually to the page
http://squid.nlanr.net/N/A (the N/A seems to be a glitch in Squid)

I've tried to restore the settings to what they were prior to my changing
anything but try as I might, I still keep getting the previous page. (Note
that regular proxying on our proxy port ... 8088 in this case ... still
works, but not transparent proxying)

Any help on making transparent proxying work again would be appreciated.
