The typical way to set up a transparent http proxy is to put it on a separate machine near the ISP connection. With LTSP, all the clients are actually running browsers on the LTSP server. Can I run the LTSP server and transparent proxy on the same machine?
A quick glance through iptables doc suggests that it might be possible because the OUTPUT chain can match packets based on the owner uid (proxy). I mention this because only the proxy should be allowed to connect through port 80. All other processes should get REDIRECT'd to 8080. Has anyone gotten this working already? -- A new cognitive theory of emotion, http://openheartlogic.org
