Hi, I'm trying to set up squid as a transparent proxy on a Centos 4.x system. Unfortunately, this means the system is stuck with the default system RPM's (Version 2.5.STABLE6) (unless someone is making an RPM for CentOS for 4.6, but I could not find one.) When I configure the server to redirect it's own requests to the squid proxy in the firewall (to test as I don't have access to the lan clients beind it) I get failed ACL: 1178066297.760 0 127.0.0.1 TCP_DENIED/403 1339 GET http://google.com/ - NONE/- text/html 1178066297.761 3 127.0.0.1 TCP_MISS/403 1378 GET http://google.com/ - DIRECT/64.233.167.99 text/html I am wondering if anyone might have an example configuration from a CentOS 4.x system for a transparent squid proxy that works that I could try, or if anyone would be willing to take a look at my configuration and suggest what might be wrong. The configuration I am using is: hierarchy_stoplist cgi-bin ? acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? no_cache deny QUERY hosts_file /etc/hosts refresh_pattern ^ftp: 1440 20% 10080 refresh_pattern ^gopher: 1440 0% 1440 refresh_pattern . 0 20% 4320 acl all src 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 acl manager proto cache_object acl localhost src 127.0.0.1/255.255.255.255 acl to_localhost dst 127.0.0.0/8 acl lan src 64.233.167.99 192.168.1.0/24 acl SSL_ports port 443 563 acl Safe_ports port 80 # http acl Safe_ports port 21 # ftp acl Safe_ports port 443 563 # https, snews acl Safe_ports port 70 # gopher acl Safe_ports port 210 # wais acl Safe_ports port 1025-65535 # unregistered ports acl Safe_ports port 280 # http-mgmt acl Safe_ports port 488 # gss-http acl Safe_ports port 591 # filemaker acl Safe_ports port 777 # multiling http acl purge method PURGE acl CONNECT method CONNECT http_access allow manager localhost http_access deny manager http_access deny !Safe_ports http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports http_access allow localhost http_access allow all http_access deny all http_reply_access allow all icp_access allow all coredump_dir /var/spool/squid Thanks for any help, Leah -- Leah Kubik : d416-585-9971x692 : d416-703-5977 : m416-559-6511 Frauerpower!
