A) and b) were suggested by others... The few times I've done this, it /really/ helped to have a clear diagram (that you understand) of what's going on. Then you can double-check your rulechain and ensure everything makes sense. For c), see /usr/ports/www/transproxy... From pkg-descr: transproxy - transparently proxy HTTP requests. This program is used with ipfw's fwd rules or Darren Reed's IPFILTER package, and is used to intercept HTTP requests and divert them to a HTTP proxy server (eg: squid), without requiring user intervention or configuration. <snip> The last time I set this up, I used transproxy and (after getting my ipfw rules right) things worked great. (Just make sure you're using the /usr/ports/www/squid port, I.e. Squid 2.5.x.) -m To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
