1. Is it a bug in pfSense Lusca packages?
2. Is it OK for me to just continue using the above setting? -
check enable transparent proxy at webgui,
check at console :
pfctl -sn |grep http
and check :
squidclient -p port-squid cache_object://your-ip-squid-box/config |grep transparent

how to check if the Lusca package works perfectly? i just see url changes in proxy report..

use squidclient command
e.g @ console type
#squidclient -p 3128 cache_object://localhost/info
you can change 3128 with your squid listen port and localhost with your proxy ipor
