Hello to everyone on the list, I’m having a peculiar problem between dansguardian and squid that I was hoping you all could help with. First I think I should give a little background to the network topology. I have Network A (192.168.1/24) and Network B (192.168.0/24) with an IPSec tunnel established between them. On the router for Network A (running pfSense/BSD) I have the following NAT Redirection rule. rdr on dc0 inet proto tcp from any to any port = http -> 192.168.0.12 port 8080 192.168.0.12 is the host running both squid and dansguardian (FreeBSD 6.1) If I tail the dansguardian.log on 192.168.0.12 I see the following. article/2006/10/21/AR2006102100487.html GET 1289 2006.10.21 22:32:09 - 192.168.1.37 http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/ At the same time I get the following in the squid access log. 1161470040.990 7 192.168.0.12 TCP_DENIED/400 1659 GET /wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/21/AR2006102100487.html - NONE/- text/html And Squid spits back the following error to my browser on host 192.168.1.37 ERROR The requested URL could not be retrieved While trying to retrieve the URL: /wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/20/AR2006102000174.html?nav=hcmodule The following error was encountered: • Invalid URL Some aspect of the requested URL is incorrect. Possible problems: • Missing or incorrect access protocol (should be `http://'' or similar) • Missing hostname • Illegal double-escape in the URL-Path • Illegal character in hostname; underscores are not allowed Your cache administrator is admin@xxxxxxxxxxxx ________________________________________ Generated Sun, 22 Oct 2006 03:40:35 GMT by proxy-server.example.com (squid/2.5.STABLE14) Now an interesting thing to note is that if I open Internet Explorer and go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Connections -> Lan Settings -> and set the proxy server to 192.168.0.12:8080 while mainting the already set NAT Redirection rule the proxy will work just fine. Here are what the logs look like when I manually tell IE to use the DG/Squid proxy. In the logs below Squid is receiving the FQDN unlike in the above set of logs.

Do the HTTP headers get fubar’d by the NAT RDR rule? If so why does it work when I set IE manually to use the 192.168.0.12:8080 proxy while keeping the NAT RDR rule? And also I want to mention that the proxy does work if IE is set to use the proxy but the NAT RDR rule is inexistent. I basically only want the NAT RDR rule for transparent filtering purposes.
