The value is used to ignore redirects sent by routers not to disable sending of redirects if you happen to be running as a router. No, you're talking about net.inet.icmp.rediraccept net.inet.ip.redirect should be the right button to control the sending of icmp redirects.

Tobias Freitag You don't give very much information. What version of OpenBSD are you running? 2.x? 3.x? 4.0? How do you know they are not getting proxy'd? If I had this problem, I would verify the syntax of the rdr rule. I would also make sure PF is enabled (pfctl -e). If you have all of these things correct, you clients should hit the proxy. Without more info, I don't know if anyone can help.
