Dear all,

I need to use Squid as a Transparent Proxy using WCCP (with Reverse
Proxy function enabled) on my Linux Debian 5.0.5.


The Squid binaries available directly with apt-get aren't build AFAIK
with the transparent proxy option enabled, so I downloaded the latest
code source (3.1.6) from http://www.squid-cache.org and I'm now in the
process of compiling it.

Depends on which version of Debian you use. The 3.1 releases currently in Unstable and Testing repositories have all the requirements for TPROXYv4 enabled.


I have installed gcc and gcc-c++ (package build-essential) to avoid
the compiler complain about missing the necessary Linux kernel header
files (Netfilter).

My compiling options are as follows:
./configure --enable-linux-netfilter --enable-wccp


Now, the problem is that I get the following error:

checking if Linux (Netfilter) kernel header files are installed... yes
configure: WARNING: Missing needed capabilities (libcap or libcap2) for TPROXY
configure: WARNING: Linux Transparent Proxy support WILL NOT be enabled
configure: WARNING: Reduced support to Interception Proxy
configure: WARNING: Missing needed capabilities (libcap or libcap2)
for TPROXY v2
configure: WARNING: Linux Transparent Proxy support WILL NOT be enabled

However, I *do* have libcap2 on my machine, and it's up-to-date
(apt-get upgrade libcap2).

libcap-dev is required to build.

Though give the Squeeze packages a try, I'm interested in any feedback if they are not working.
