Hello,
I am using SQUID 2.6.STABLE17 with fedora core 8, & BIND
DNS SERVER configured on the same box, i have configured squid as
transparent proxy, and applied iptables rule by using the following
command
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT
--to-port 3128
service iptables save
so when i restart iptables after appling & saving above i
get following:
Flushing firewall rules: [ OK ]
Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter nat [ OK ]
Unloading iptables modules: [FAILED]
Applying iptables firewall rules: [ OK ]
Loading additional iptables modules: nf_conntrack_netbios_n[ OK ]
so if i try to ping to (any public ip) from client PC after
enabling iptables i get request time out, but i can browse websites
without any problem, and if i disable iptables i can get reply from
the (public ip) to which i am pinging and browsing also works. also
checked DNS resolution it works perfectly as browsing works.
so i would like to know what is the reason of stopping ping
after enabling iptables and why i am getting Unloading iptables
modules FAILED.

This is an iptables problem. If squid is browsing properly it can't be
squid.
Best try to contact your RedHat support person, or the
iptables/netfilter contact lists.

Please use Squid 2.6STABLE17+ or 3.0STABLE1+
There are serious security advisories out on all earlier releases.
