Most of the "httpd_accel" options have been removed in the latest squid, now you configure transparency on the httpd_port option. http_port 192.168.1.1:3128 transparent If your network traffic passes through a Linux box, you can "redirect" the packets to your proxy server with some fancy iptables rules, this is transparent to your users. Or as most have said so far, block all outbound HTTP(S) 80/443 traffic expect from your proxy, then they must use your network proxy - just depends on your setup. The benefit of using transparent proxy is that you only need to set up the network once, as opposed to setting up all of the computers and each program separately for the non-transparent option.
