Hi all, I am nearing completion of the configuration of the OpenBSD Gateway with two internet connections. So there is a problem with squid. The task is to configure a set of users "dsl_users" alone use the DSL connection to connect to websites and force all others use the cable modem connection. The file "/etc/squid.conf" gives the following instructions for that. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # TAG: tcp_outgoing_address # Allows you to map requests to different outgoing IP addresses # based on the username or sourceaddress of the user making # the request. # # tcp_outgoing_address ipaddr [[!]aclname] ... # # Example where requests from 10.0.0.0/24 will be forwareded # with source address 10.1.0.1, 10.0.2.0/24 forwarded with # source address 10.1.0.2 and the rest will be forwarded with # source address 10.1.0.3. # # acl normal_service_net src 10.0.0.0/255.255.255.0 # acl good_service_net src 10.0.1.0/255.255.255.0 # tcp_outgoing_address 10.0.0.1 normal_service_net # tcp_outgoing_address 10.0.0.2 good_service_net # tcp_outgoing_address 10.0.0.3 # # Processing proceeds in the order specified, and stops at first fully # matching line. # #Default: # none ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- but the problem is that though I have the IP of the DSL connection fixed I get a differrent IP each time I reboot for cable connection. So how do I configure this? presently i am stuck with the following configuration. # acl dsl_users src aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa/32, bbb.bbb.bbb.bbb/32, ccc.ccc.ccc.ccc/32 tcp_outgoing_address dsl.dsl.dsl.dsl dsl_users tcp_outgoing_address # Since I am not able to give the IP address for the last "tcp_outgoing_address" squid shows error and doesnot start up. Could someone provide an Idea of how to solve the problem ??? Thankyou somuch kind Regards Siju
