I've reread this a couple of times, I'll get the proxy working with out redirect, then authentication, then transparency. Where do I put the URL for the login page?, for user authentication? Should I be using a radius server to accomplish this?

This may be preventing rules set on the internal interface from being applied (including the port 80->3128 redirect). I don't know for sure, but I don't see any related rules in the SuSEfirewall2 status output. Try setting a browser to explicitly use the proxy, and see if it works. If not, solve that problem first. Then try to set up interception. But always keep in mind, interception is unpopular with the devs for a reason (or three). Chris
