        @Steve:

        Thank you.

        Bump for i386 build:)

        I'm also on a i386 box and i wonder if i should go with squid or squid3 ? i've had squid running under other circumstances, but not with pfSense on i386. Im already running pfBlockerNG with several alias lists, and i'd want squid/squid3 to not work for sites that are blocked there, obviously. Does squid3 transparent proxies 'bypass' the pfBlockerNG rules, or are the rules applied before the traffic even reaches it?

        I think SquidGuard rule administering are a lot harder than in pfBlocker so i'd prefer to keep all the rules management there and have squid3 only do transparent proxying for the sites that pass the firewall.

          @Steve:

          Now here's an oddity.

          This is one of pbi behaviors. same binary, different folder, different results. (Imagine get all it working together :))

          And here is the confirmation that pbi build on i386 is outdated

          '--disable-ipf-transparent' '--disable-ipfw-transparent'
          

          Go to amd64 and it will work  :)

          Thanks for your feedback

          I've just installed 3.4.10_2 pkg 0.2.6 and I'm seeing the following config using "squid -v"

          '--disable-ipf-transparent' '--disable-ipfw-transparent' '--enable-pf-transparent'
          

          This is the same as before…  :(

          Although I was offered an upgrade I now realise the version hasn't actually changed. Should I have expected this for the recompiled version?

          Steve

              Hi Sujyo1,

              You report the squid version/config and startup logs, but you don't indicate what issues you are seeing. Is it that transparent mode isn't working for you? If so do it prior to your upgrade to 2.2 with your current configuration?

              Thanks,

              Steve

                  Hey guys,

                  have an amd64 where squid (reverse) is working as expected. But i386 is driving me nuts… Solved all "startup" problems (net.inet.ip.portrange.reservedhigh=0) and always get

                  commBind: Cannot bind socket FD NN ti <ip>:443: (48) Address already in use</ip>
                  

                  Now I moved the pfSense webGUI from 443 to another port and squid reverse is listening on 443 as it should.

                  To be clear: On amd64 webGUI and squid reverse sits on 443, whereas on i386 this won't work…

                  On amd64 I also don't need any changes to tunables or others. Install and it just runs on 443.

                    pfSense 2.2 AMD64 normal install, squid 3.4.10_2 pkg 0.2.6. Webconfigurator listening on non standard port and redirect rule disabled.

                    After updating pfSense to 2.2, squid 2 stopped working in transparent mode.. I thought i'd upgrade to squid 3, same story.

                    squid -v
                    '–disable-ipf-transparent' '--disable-ipfw-transparent' '--enable-pf-transparent'

                    Looks like compile flags are wrong...

                    netstat -an | grep LISTEN | grep 3128
                    tcp4      0      0 127.0.0.1.3128        .                    LISTEN
                    tcp4      0      0 192.168.2.1.3128      .                    LISTEN
                    tcp4      0      0 192.168.45.1.3128      .                    LISTEN
                    tcp4      0      0 192.168.43.1.3128      .                    LISTEN
                    tcp4      0      0 192.168.44.1.3128      .                    LISTEN

                    Squid is listening for sure, if i point a browser directly to port 3128 from any LAN interface i can see activity in squid logs, http://www.lagado.com/proxy-test test page also confirms it's working.

                    pfctl -s rules | grep 3128
                    pass in quick on em1 proto tcp from any to ! (em1) port = 3128 flags S/SA keep state
                    pass in quick on em0 proto tcp from any to ! (em0) port = 3128 flags S/SA keep state
                    pass in quick on em5 proto tcp from any to ! (em5) port = 3128 flags S/SA keep state
                    pass in quick on ath0_wlan0 proto tcp from any to ! (ath0_wlan0) port = 3128 flags S/SA keep state

                    192.168.2.1 = ath0_wlan0; 192.168.43.1 = em0; 192.168.44.1 = em1; 192.168.45.1 = em5
                    However, it should also show smth like:
                    rdr on em0 proto tcp from any to !(em0) port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 3128

                    First lines of squid.conf look like this:

                    /usr/pbi/squid-amd64/etc/squid: cat squid.conf

                    This file is automatically generated by pfSense

                    Do not edit manually !

                    http_port 192.168.44.1:3128
                    http_port 192.168.43.1:3128
                    http_port 192.168.45.1:3128
                    http_port 192.168.2.1:3128
                    http_port 127.0.0.1:3128
                    http_port 127.0.0.1:3128 intercept

                    In squid2 i think it was "transparent" instead "intercept".

                    Squid logs are clean, no complaints, not even about net.inet.ip.portrange.first being too high since only root can use <1024 ports. Disabling/enabling transparent proxy in General tab of webconfigurator does not seem to have any effect on listening ports, but it does change squid.conf which means it's not webconfig's fault for sure.
                    I've been tampering with configs for some time without success, still i didn't figure out why squid transparent mode is not working, but my guess is because of wrong compile flags.
                    This is so frustrating, any help is appreciated.

                    Thanks!

                      I've just updated to 2.3.2 and squid 0.4.22.

                      It looks as if the "'–disable-ipf-transparent' '--disable-ipfw-transparent' '--enable-pf-transparent'" issue persists.

                      Has it been confirmed that using –enable-ipf-transparent' and '--enable-ipfw-transparent' on i386 will get transparent mode working again?

                      Could somebody please provide a 'squid -v' output on an amd64 system to compare.

                      Thanks,

                      Steve

                          It works fine, this is an ancient issue that has nothing to do with the modern package system. Start a new thread if you have a problem, but it's not related to this.
