Im using squid on another box. Running the transparent proxy. I know the ports are wrong. I agree that natting is working correctly Rob. I'll get my script and clean it up and send it to the list for someone to dissect. Might be a little. Just seems weird that the only site I cant get to (so far) is kernel.org. I thought maybe they did something weird on their end that someone knew about. thanks, ddh Quoting Rob Sterenborg <rob@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: > > I had to redo my firewall and routers over the weekend due to a > > change in our isp.
