make your squid a transparent proxy.. it is easier to use and support on almost all programs and services which needs to connect to internet
but still if you want to use http port to connect for your skype and yahoo messengers. there is a option in yahoo messenger for options and connection with proxy and then enter your address and port no. over there, same is with skype Tools >> Options >> and then select the port no (whatever it iss 8080 or 3128) for thunderbird and outlook like email clients either configure squid to accept the request coming on port of mails like 25, 110 (which i havent done yet, if you get a solution do tell me) or just simply MASQUERADE that ports.. (i have done this only) do tell me if you are facing any more problem or want some more detail process of commands to MASQUERADE. --- In linuxvadapav@yahoogroups.com, Shrikant Patil <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello Friends, > > I need to setup squid as my Gateway server. > > So, > WindowsClient =====>Firewall ====> Squid =====> Internet > |---->-Ubuntu-M/C<---| > > I have 2 NIC's, One connected to router and other to internal lan. > > Now, I am able to connect to Internet with proxy only, from Client machine. > > But I am NOT able to use Thunderbird,Skype fron Client machine which are Win32/NT > > Please suggest. > > > Thanks and Regards, > Shrikant > > > > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] >
