Nic 1 (eth0 - 192.168.1.3) is where I want my outside world to see and Nic 2 (eth1 - 192.168.3.1) is the network where my webserver resides.

Any ideas? Thanks. > > Regards, > > Jon Faranda It looks like you are trying to use squid2.5 I highly recommend upgrading to squid2.6 or 3.0 Then the configuration becomes simply: visible_hostname name_of_reverse_proxy http_port 192.168.1.3:80 accel http_port 192.168.3.1:80 accel and a secure acl setup takes care of the rest, as per whatever you wish. checkout this page: http://www.visolve.com/squid/squid30/network.php#http_port I believe most of the parameters in this section apply to squid2.6 and 3.0 both.
