Hi, there I have tryied by using the command iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128 but still no success, and by the way as i understand, it will only forward https request to the squid but what about the Yahoo messenger it is not using https, so what the procedure to enable yahoo messenger and other functions such as voice chat, chat rooms etc.. through squid transparent proxy.
