I really appreciate the clear directions on how to use TPROXY with Squid3.

I've previously used a REDIRECT/intercept proxy, and switching to using 
TPROXY took only a couple of minutes. (even with IPv6!)

I do have a question, though:

I run an Apache server on my router as well. It's only visible 
internally, and is useful as it lets me use some of the squid log 
tools, like SARG, to view proxy usage. Similarly, I use the apache 
server to serve a "access denied" page from squidGuard.

This presents a problem, though:  Computers inside the firewall can't 
see the $FW machine's apache server.

Is there something that's part of the TPROXY setup that doesn't really 
allow for this?

When I look at the rule:
ACCEPT    loc      $FW    tcp     80

I think it's straighforward enough; however when I want to access the 
Apache server, I really do need ot use port 80.

So is there a way to get around this in shorewall, or would I be forced 
to use port 8080 (or similar) for the apache server?

Thanks!
