--Apple-Mail-6--366543816 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Hi all, we use the ETINC bandwidth manger running on freebsd 7.0. Our setup in a nutshell is: Clients--------FreebsdEtincBox------------ TranspartentSquidBoxes----------Internet. i am using etinc in bridge mode. I have a firewall rule on my external interface (fxp3) that should redirect http traffic to an external squid server: /usr/bwmgr/utils/bwmgr fxp3 -x 101 -name markustest -fw -o -dport 80 - saddr MYIPADDR -proxydev fxp3 -proxyaddr SQUIDMACADDR the http requets is correctly redirected to the proxy: squid log: TCP_MISS/200 6665 GET http://www.google.co.ug/ - DIRECT/ 74.125.39.105 text/html however the page fails to open and firefox displays below error: The connection was reset Running wireshark (on the machine that requested the webpage) to check for traffic on port 80 gives me the below output: 1 TCP Connection establish request (SYN): server port http 2 TCP Connection establish acknowledge (SYN+ACK): server port http 4 HTTP GET /HTTP/1.1\r\n 10 TCP Retransmission (suspected) 11 TCP Duplicate ACK (#1) 12 TCP Connection reset (RST) 13 TCP Connection reset (RST) 14 TCP Retransmission (suspected) ..... when i remove the etinc box between the squid box and the desktop everything works correctly: 1 TCP Connection establish request (SYN): server port http 2 TCP Connection establish acknowledge (SYN+ACK): server port http 4 HTTP GET http://www.google.co.ug/HTTP/1.1\r\n 18 HTTP HTTP/1.0 200 OK\r\n 18 TCP Connection finish (FIN) I opened a trouble ticket with etinc who promptly replied and informed me that etinc doesn't modify the tcp header at all. So my next step is to find out if the problem could be with the under lying OS. Any help is highly appreciated. -- Markus --Apple-Mail-6--366543816--
