Re: [squid-users] Transparent (intercept) help

This http://linux.oreillynet.com/pub/a/linux/2001/10/25/transparent_proxy.html gives a nice description of the steps needed to use iptables and configure squid as a transparent proxy.

  Thank you in advance for your help.
  I need to set up Squid for my organization as a transparent proxy. All employees will point to the internal interface of squid as their gateway, the gateway machine will filter out all port 80 and 443 traffic, and pass it to squid. All other traffic will be passed directly to the router (we have a very small user base).
  Two questions:
  1. I am using RedHat 7.2. What do I use as my port level packet-filterer?
  2. What do I have to do to squid to enable it for this kind of use? I did a ./configure --enable-ipf-transparent and it could not find the IP header files.
   
  Thanks again!
