Hi,

I'm currently setting up a transparent proxy for a small LAN. Since I
already have an apache running on the LAN gateway, I want to use
mod_proxy.

Transparent proxy in this context means the gateway networking rules
redirect any request to web ports to the proxy system. Users do not have
to configure anything special in their browser. The classical FOSS
transparent proxy is squid. 

My problem is when users manually configure the proxy address in their
browser everything is fine (except most of the lan systems are laptops
and manual config is a no-go). When I use the networking tools to
redirect the packets to mod_proxy, apache logs show

"GET / HTTP/1.1" instead of
"GET http://foo.org/ HTTP/1.1" and users are always served empty blank
index pages

Can't mod_proxy be used in transparent mode like squid ?

Regards,
