I am using two different server. One is running under linux and using
iptables from which i want to forward http traffic to the FreeBSD box where
i am running Squid proxy and want to make it run as transparent proxy. The
problem is that the FreeBSD box is not working as a transparent proxy in
this scenario. It seems that the Squid proxy server at FreeBSD box doesn't
see the packet forwarded to it through the linux server.

Any suggestion?
