Hi everyone,
I install a FC6 router in my house. I configured Squid to be a transparent proxy. I put the rules needed in my iptables config, and everything is working fine. The question is, how can I configure an apache web server in the same machine as the transparent proxy, because with iptables I redirect al packets going to port 80 entering the LAN interface to port 8080 (squid proxy), so I cannot reach the apache web server.
############################################################################## This is the rule for redirection that iŽm using: (eth1 LAN iface anr 192.168.1.1 is the router.)
${IPT} -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.1:8080

I attached my squid.conf
I wish you didn't.
Google thus: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=%22How+to%22+transparent+proxy&ie=UTF-8...
The answer is in the first document on _my_ list.
Part of the answer is to have a rule that accepts connexions to your box before you deal with those going elsewhere.
I don't suppose your DNAT rule is wrong, but it's not what is usually recommended, and usual practice is to have squid listening on its default port, 3128. I suspect the usual iptables rule doesn't cause the conflict you see.
