Squid as transparent proxy with cache

hkusulja · Oct 19, 2008, 9:46 AM

Hi!

I have pfsense 1.2-release
1xLAN
1xWAN
1xWifi

Wifi and LAN are going to internet over WAN

I have installed squid, squid content filter, and proxy report packages..

i want a transparent proxy for HTTP (so i don't need to configure every browser on every PC for every user that should use proxy).. (and i have set cache to 30GB)

So i go to squid general settings
i have selected:

LAN, Wifi interfaces
transparent proxy checkbox
proxy port 8080
enabled logging into /var/squid/log

after that i see in logs that i am not going through proxy..,

if i enable: Allow users on interface
then i can't open any HTTP page

so i go to: Access control > Allowed subnets > and i wrote two subnets: 192.168.10.0/24 and 192.168.12.0/24 (these are my LAN and Wifi)

but after save…, restart squid service.., i still can't open any page..., in logs, a have TCP_MISS ?

after while i get page (60) Operation timed out.

i see in access.log

1224409049.711 180047 192.168.10.31 TCP_MISS/504 1498 GET http://forum.domeka.net/ - DIRECT/192.168.10.1 text/html

(192.168.10.1 is my pfsense address)

where is a problem ? what am i doing wrong ?

ok i found a problem..

i had a other package.., "proxy content filter".., that I didn't configure…, default is to deny a page..., i did allow all pages., and now it works..

Hm.. While any package installing, you can see message "check you package configurstion" ::)
