Did that include the links I've given below?

Yes I read almost all examples config from wiki.squid-cache.org
And I was mislead by the fact that there is a DNAT config and a REDIRECT config.. DNAT is completely useless if Squid only support to be on the router.
Wasn't it possible to dnat to a different server with older versions (my memory is faulty) ?



I read the "fw mark and route policy" method as an alternative not the only way to go. My mistake.

Have you put this rule onto the firewall you mention, or the Squid box itself?

https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/InterceptionProxy
#Requirements_and_methods_for_Interception_Caching

states "NAT configuration will only work when used *on the squid box* ."

So, you *must* put that rule on the Squid machine itself, not on the firewall.

It goes on to say "To intercept from a gateway machine and direct traffic at a
separate squid box use policy routing." with a link to
https://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Intercept/IptablesPolicyRoute

Ah, so you *are* doing the NAT on the router :)  Don't :)

Well, give us some details of what you tried, how you configured it, what
worked, and what didn't work, and we might be able to help, otherwise we can
only say "well, tproxy does work if set up properly, so if yours doesn't work,
it isn't set up properly", which isn't a very helpful answer...

I read with a new eye the tproxy page https://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/FullyTransparentWithTPROXY and found that I forgot the policy routing part.
Will try again.

Thanks for your help.
Sebastien.

Antony.
