Amos, Hi Thanks for your reply. Ragarding the documentation, I have inserted the following routing rules: ip rule add fwmark 1 lookup 100 ip route add local 0.0.0.0/0 dev lo table 100 Now, access.log is populated with proper logs, but clients can not surf the web, I mean the proxy server is unable to forward http responses to clients' browsers. When the client enters for example www.google.com, the connection to the http server is established but the process halts at Waiting for www.google.com and after a while Squid reports the unablility to retreive the requested URL. By the way, we have disabled selinux. Any ideas?
