Well, I'm not sure exactly how squid would help you (it's just a web proxy: all it'll do is mirror HTTP requests), and a SOCKS proxy is just a similar thing for generalized *outgoing* connections. What you probably want to look into is port forwarding with iptables or ssh -- this'll make a port on the gateway machine forward connections to another machine behind the firewall. -- Andrew Farmer [EMAIL PROTECTED]
