The problem with this approach might be that domains are looked up for their IPs at the time of rule creation and not at the time of request. Since destinations like github.com, google.com, facebook etc use many large pools of IPs, your rule might not match later in the day or after a few days.

Better to use "ipset" along with dnsmasq and refer that ipset in the iptables rule to match dst.

1. ipset create _ipsetname_ bitmap:ip

2. Configure dnsmasq to populate _ipsetname_ by adding following lines for each domain to dnsmasq.conf:

ipset=/google.com/_ipsetname_
ipset=/github.com/_ipsetname_
...
...

3. Use dnsmasq as resolver-cache on your proxy machine and ensure that squid uses your dnsmasq for DNS queries.

4. Add intercept iptables rules to not NAT the traffic to destination ipset:

iptables -A PREROUTING -t nat -i $IFACE_LAN -m set --match-set _ipsetname_ dst -j ACCEPT

Dnsmasq will keep populating the ipset as and when a resolution request is received for the matched domains. An ipset can hold 65534 entries.

I use this approach extensively to allow Anti-Virus and Windows updates to the machines which otherwise are not allowed to access Internet directly without configuring explicit proxy or through proxy.pac/wpad.

Nishant
