I have investigate better about the problem that brings up CPU and Squid process over 100%! We have this situation: Dansguardian on port 8080 and Squid on port 3128. The The problem appear when telnetting, from LAN, to: <ip_firewall_proxy>:8080 Squid process raise up, in few seconds, to 100% and nobody can surf.. I disabled NAT, to make sure it was not a loop of iptables-transparent proxying redirection. Have you good some suggestions for us? Thank you again!
