Hi All,
I am trying to use squid on my machine and I dont want to do the proxy
settings for all the browsers that I use. So I have configure squid in
transparent mode and redirected the http request to port 3128.
How do I differentiate the browser request and the squid's forward
request and how to add an iptables exception ?.
You can't on the same machine.
Try setting the environment global: http_proxy="http://127.0.0.1:3128/";
(assuming thats the IP/port squid is listening for localhost stuff.
Then your browsers and other software only need to be set to 'use system
settings'. That setting is the default on a lot of system utilities, so
it catches their web access to useful effect too.
