Re: [SQU] Transparent proxy and cacheing only proxy

transparent proxy is the same a a caching proxy, except that the users
dont 'see' it... that is they dont have to tell the browser that it is
there.. it requires redirection all http requests to a router to the proxy
server... it is covered in some detail in squid's documentation, try the
FAQ and other stuff on the squid website..
