RE: [squid-users] Squid + RHEL4 + ip_gre issue

Thanks for the suggestion. I did configure a GRE tunnel from the router
to the Squid. Maybe that caused all my problems. I'll look into that
again.
I did install the kernel-devel package from Redhat and tried to look for
the ip_gre.c file and didn't find it. I guess I didn't look hard enough.
Thanks again for your helps. They're very helpful.

What GRE interface on the router? Have you created a GRE tunnel from the
router to the cache? This should not be done. The router automatically
sets up the needed GRE stuff internally when the cache registers.

Maybe. Not an IOS expert.

Get the source rpm, unpack the sources and look in net/ipv4/ip_gre.c
