There is the TPROXY patch for Linux.
Another option is tcp_outgoing_address combined with NAT outside the
proxy. Set up one private tcp_outgoing_address per client IP and then
NAT these to the real client IP before the traffic leaves your network.
[So is patching with the tproxy patch one of the options or both
combined with the tcp_outgoing_address?]
Both has very strict requirements on your networking setup as all
return traffic must go via the proxy even if the destination IP is the
client IP.
[You are right all traffic passes through the proxy.Is it okay if I do
the NATING on the same box as squid or some other box has tobe setup?
You will excuse me for insisting I can't stop usind squid just beacuse
of some sites blocking my squid box next time I rather they block a
particular host or network.Please advise.
Thanks
