Thanks Alex, 1- Is it possible to provide me with an example of squid.conf of both parent and child squids? I am having very basic doubts about cache_peer and its very hard to find complete squid.confs over the internet. 2- cache-peer really routes the connection to the second squid server or just look for a hit in a second server's cache? I need the second server to not just authenticate the user, but to know from which port the user got in the first squid server in order to forward this user through different routes based on this incoming port number. I want to use the first squid, just as a dst.domain filter for it to decide based on the dst.domain list, if the user will be forward to a local route, or if this user are going to be sent to the second squid server, which, based on the original incoming port, can decide through which tcp_outgoing_address he will going out. Thanks for all the helping. Marcelo. On 8/15/22 21:49, Marcelo wrote: > How can I transfer connection information from one squid server to another? Use cache_peer login=PASSTHRU or login=PASS. Other login=... options may also be of interest. See cache_peer documentation in your squid.conf.documented for details and caveats.

The key problem in my case is that I'm using a complex NAT/Mangle setup, with too many decisions to be made. When I finally succeeded, I was able to pin-point the glitch in my setup: "Ensure NAT Rule is Applied to WAN Interface Only" in your excellent guide. Since I'm unable to do that in my setup, I used a better and more safe approach: just create a nat rule that will ACCEPT traffic from intercepted clients with no further action, and place it well enough higher in the nat rule-chain so it basically skips regular nat. Thank you for the excellent guide.

Now, I have one last bit to handle, which you did not cover in your video. I'm using 3 ports for squid like Rafael's guide: one for normal CONNECT, one for intercepted plain HTTP on 80, and one for intercepted HTTPs on 443. The setup works awesome for TLS addresses (i.e https://), but browser redirection from Plain to TLS, say from http://cnn.com to https://cnn.com, fails to happen. It just waits then time out. What could be done to make it happen?

Depending on router rules be it route or dnat, the client browser effectively displays the error page of squid, or goes into a very long delay then failure. > > > > I will retry and let you know. > > > > K > > On Wed, Aug 10, 2022, 10:08 <ngtech1ltd@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hey K, > > > > I am not sure about the network topology. > > Preferably the Squid should reside on another network then the clients if it?s intercepting the traffic. > > Also, I assume it?s not a TPROXY setup so it should be pretty simple and straight forward. > > > > I understand why are you asking this question. > > Also take into account that Mikrotik is now on 7.4 firmware and it?s recommended to use this one. > > If you are using any other version let me know so I can try to make sense on the differences. > > I will try to give a DEMO for such a setup and how to make it work. > > > > Eliezer > > > > ---- > > Eliezer Croitoru > > NgTech, Tech Support > > Mobile: +972-5-28704261 > > Email: ngtech1ltd@xxxxxxxxx > > Web: https://ngtech.co.il/ > > My-Tube: https://tube.ngtech.co.il/ > > > > From: squid-users <squid-users-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> On > Behalf Of M K > Sent: Tuesday, 9 August 2022 22:29 > To: squid-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Squid 4.8+ intercept > > > > Hello, > > > > I have a setup like this one: > > > | Client | =====> | Router | =====> Internet > || > \/ > | Squid | > > > > ...the router is a Mikrotik router capable of all things NAT/Redirect and whatnot.
