[squid-users] Transparent Proxy logging

Seeing as there is a lot of traffic on this list and I've seen other posts
get answered quickly, I can only assume that my post was so confusing that
noone could answer it :-)

I have read the docs and configured my system for transparent proxy. I used
ipchains to redirect 80 to 3128. What I've noticed is that unless I
configure the browser to use the proxy server, I don't getting any entries in
the access.log. How do I know it is working and how do I log the accesses?

Thanks.

I'm experimenting with Squid and ipchains in preparation for my kids starting
surfing. I read that I can expand upon Squid to develop surf-watching tools
(similar to net nanny). Unfortunately, I haven't been able to figure out how
to prevent a web browser that isn't configured for the proxy from accessing
the Internet. Do I want a transparent proxy?

If so, I configured Squid for that but found that nothing was getting logged
in access.log. Yes, I used ipchains to redirect port 80 to 3128. Without
the logging, how do I know if this is working?

Sorry if these questions are answered somewhere, I searched quite a bit but
no joy.

Thanks in advance for help.

Tim
