Hi,

I have a firewall which also serves as a transparent proxy
system.  So all forward 80 ports are sent to the localhost(I
think)'s 3129 port.

I've read
http://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Intercept/LinuxRedirect,

and my netfilter rules are:

LO_REDIRECT=3129
$IPTB -t nat -A PREROUTING -i $INET_IF -s $INET_IP -p tcp \
               --dport $HTTP -j ACCEPT
$IPTB -t nat -A PREROUTING -i $DMZ_IF -p tcp -s $LAN_NET --dport $HTTP \
                            -j REDIRECT --to-ports $LO_REDIRECT
$IPTB -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o $INET_IF -p tcp -j MASQUERADE
$IPTB -t mangle -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport $LO_REDIRECT -j DROP

squid.conf:

http_port 3129 transparent

(are there other options that I need to consider?)

 From within the LAN_NET, I get a time out error.

You are missing the rule which prevents packets leaving Squid from being looped back into Squid again.

You seem to have one preventing external (WAN) traffic from being NAT'd into Squid instead.

Try this:

 $IPTB -t nat -A PREROUTING -i $INET_IF -s $INET_IP -p tcp \
	--dport $HTTP -j ACCEPT

 $IPTB -t nat -A PREROUTING -s $SQUID_IP -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT

 $IPTB -t nat -A PREROUTING -i $DMZ_IF -p tcp \
	-s $LAN_NET --dport $HTTP \
	-j REDIRECT --to-ports $LO_REDIRECT


If I do a tcpdump on the firewall and am getting
traffic to the remote host on port 80 from the
lan host.

Somehow this setup isn't running well.  If someone
can clarify what I might be doing wrong and/or
ways I can debug this, I'd appreciate it.

The squid's access.log is empty.  So traffic isn't
going through squid's proxy.  but I'm using the
same netfilter rules as the aforementioned link.

Common Mistake: assuming that the access.log shows traffic *arriving*.

All that means that traffic is never *completing* a transaction. access.log will stay empty if the outgoing fetch is still happening. The timeout is many minutes, so it can be a long time before access.log shows anything.

Make sure "via on" is configured in your squid.conf to abort loops early.
