Hi, I am having trouble setting up a Squid Interception/transparent proxy server. I am using Ubuntu Server Edition 12.10, Squid 3.3 and a DD-WRT Router to redirect traffic to the proxy. The script I am using I got at this link: http://www.dd-wrt.ca/wiki/index.php/Squid_Transparent_Proxy
My exact iptables script is (from that link): #!/bin/sh PROXY_IP=192.168.0.10 PROXY_PORT=3127 LAN_IP=`nvram get lan_ipaddr` LAN_NET=$LAN_IP/`nvram get lan_netmask` iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i br0 -s $LAN_NET -d $LAN_NET -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i br0 -s ! $PROXY_IP -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to $PROXY_IP:$PROXY_PORT iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -o br0 -s $LAN_NET -d $PROXY_IP -p tcp -j SNAT --to $LAN_IP iptables -I FORWARD -i br0 -o br0 -s $LAN_NET -d $PROXY_IP -p tcp --dport $PROXY_PORT -j ACCEPT I have also tried to use PROXY_PORT 3128 (not 3127) also. I can successfully edit the PROXY_PORT to 80 (local Apache web server) and it works, no problem. My error message I am getting in /var/log/squid/cache.log is: TIME HERE kid1| NF getsockopt(SO_ORIGINAL_DST) failed on local=SERVER_IP:3127 remote=ROUTER_IP:62479 FD 20 flags=33: (92) Protocol not available In my browser I don't get any error message, just a blank page. I get this error message every request I try, though the port on the remote changes each time.
