Dear Chris,
This sounds like a good one.
As part of the logging, I need to log the current number of file
descriptors in use and if after a crash I notice the last values
hitting the peaks, I can almost accurately say that REDIRECT of
iptables is the cause. Any pointers to monitor the file descriptors?

MRTG or RRDtool would be another option, but that is really only
attractive if you are going to use it for other purposes as well (the
allegory of killing a fly with an elephant gun comes to mind).
From what your last sentence says, you are not using redirect but ask
customers to setup the proxy settings, probably using .pac files.
Well, if I was nicer I would supply a proxy.pac... :o) It's on my TODO
list.
Thanks,
Mitesh
