You shouldn't need any rules to do with the port squid is running on. To the firewall on the interface you are connecting through, it's all looking like port 22. The box you are ssh'ing to, is this the same box that squid is running on? If so, try `ssh -L 3128:localhost:3128 [...]' (as long as squid is listening on localhost). > > I tried the rule below w/o success: > > iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3128 -m state --state > NEW,ESTABLISHED,RELATED What did you join it to? > > On the client, I have the default output policy of accept, so it should > be ok?
