hi list:

i have just installed my Squid server and it's working beautifully, in the traditional proxy config.. but now i wanna engage transparent proxying...

i have tried using the ip_gre module, but my machine won't accept the creation of the gre1 interface.. attempts to download IPTunnel have been futile as well...

so i have tried to compile the ip_wccp module, and got it to work with my kernel.. as in, i was able to load it using modprobe.... although am not exactly sure if it the normal one.. :-)...

i have setup my configz on the squid box as follows:

/etc/squid.conf
http_port 3128
cache_mem 32 MB
cache_dir ufs /var/squid/cache 100 16 256
cache_access_log /var/squid/logs/access.log
cache_log /var/squid/logs/cache.log
cache_store_log /var/squid/logs/store.log
debug_options ALL,1
refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080
refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440
refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320

ip web-cache redirect

access-list 1 permit 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0

I am running Squid 2.3 on Linux 2.2.19-SMP... is there something i could have missed.. please advise..

much appreciated.. thanks..
