Squid has its own documentation for doing this, try reading that, then ask questions about any specific problems you have. If you're getting good advice, it's going to be the same advice that Squid has already. But with the added delay of emails going back and forth. In a nutshell. Get Squid working as a proxy, first. One that does the job when you tell your browser to use it as a proxy. Then, play around with firewall rules that (a) blocks attempts to make direct connections bypassing the proxy, and (b) redirects direct attempts through the proxy. Personally, I think transparent proxies are a damn stupid thing. They get in the way of various things that don't work through proxies, making it damn near impossible to just use the internet. Proxies that you elect to use, by deliberate configuration in the browser, are a good thing. You can save bandwidth, but you're not forced to use it. Using automatic proxy configuration scripts (on a local webserver) is an easy way of getting each browser to use your proxy without having to do a lot of programming in each browser. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.21-78.2.41.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
