Hi Andy, Sorry to bug you, but I finally got round to trying the qos_flows feature and I think my understanding is completely back to front?

What I need is to copy the packet/connection mark from the client request, and apply it to the upstream request. So for example I mark clients that have passed a captive portal test with some mark, I need that mark copying up to requests coming from squid so that I know they effectively come from a validated client

Uhm, sorry to ut in but I question why your Squid would relay requests from non-validated clients?

On a portal you should have unlimited access to the portal splash content.

On a local stub server running in the portal DMZ or "error" splash pages delivered by Squid itsef on a 511 status code are the best ways. Using those methods ther DMZ firewall needs no pinholes to get to the splash content.
