Hi Henrik: Thanks for your response. That was the first thing I tried, actually, and when I couldn't get it to work I enabled both ip_wccp AND ip_gre, as per this how-to (which I realize is a bit dated):
<http://www.sublime.com.au/squid-wccp/> But based on your suggestion, I tried again with a new kernel (one without GRE compiled in) and only the ip_wccp module loaded. It worked like a champ! As an FYI, I've included a tcpdump of what the packet output looks like now, in the hope that Google will chronicle it and save someone else from asking the same question ;-) Thanks for your help, Henrik. ---Maxx On Tue, 2004-08-17 at 18:04, Henrik Nordstrom wrote: > On Wed, 17 Aug 2004, Maxx Christopher Lobo wrote: > > compiling the ip_wccp module, setting up the gre tunnel and so forth > > posed no problems. > > What GRE tunnel? if you use the ip_wccp module the normal GRE support MUST > NOT be enabled in the kernel, and the Cisco side of things should be > automatic.
