All, I just can't seem to find a definitive answer on this. I have squid 3.0 working in transparent mode itself happily. So, I redirected the transparent settings to Dansguardian, which then talks to squid. But squid reveals: "This request could not be forwarded to the origin server or to any parent caches. The most likely cause for this error is that: The cache administrator does not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers, and All configured parent caches are currently unreachable. " I understand this happens with parent/child caches, but I don't understand what I need to tweak to make this work. Thanks, Jason
