      Hi folks, so i run into this issue with transparent proxy.  When its on nothing works, when its off everything works (kind of reverse)

      from what i can tell when i run this with transparent proxy

      sockstat | grep squid

      i get
      $ sockstat | grep squid
      proxy    squid      874  3  dgram  -> /var/run/logpriv
      proxy    squid      874  12 udp4  *:2497                :
      proxy    squid      874  17 stream -> ??
      proxy    squid      874  18 stream -> ??
      proxy    squid      874  19 stream -> ??
      proxy    squid      874  20 stream -> ??
      proxy    squid      874  21 stream -> ??
      proxy    squid      874  22 tcp4  172.17.20.20:3128    :
      proxy    squid      874  23 tcp4  127.0.0.1:80          :
      proxy    squid      874  24 udp4  *:4827                :
      proxy    squid      874  25 udp4  *:3401                :
      root    squid      871  3  dgram  -> /var/run/logpriv

      why is it listening on 127.0.0.0 ??? should that be the LAN ip?

        With transparent proxy it listens on localhost (127.0.0.1) and traffic coming in on the LAN side gets redirected there.

        Be sure you have also selected "allow users on interface" or add an ACL to make sure systems on the LAN side are allowed to hit the proxy.

        Otherwise we'll need more information, more than "nothing works" - specific information like error messages, system log contents, etc.
