How do I setup a NIC for outgoing connections and the other to serve my Squid proxy?

http://serverfault.com – I have an internal network (192.168.2.0/24) that I'm supposed to connect to a proxy. I've already installed and test(with a little traffic) an Squid 3 cache/proxy server in a Ubuntu 12.04 box with this IP address: 192.168.2.102 eth0. Also, I have another physical NIC with IP 192.168.2.101 eth1. The setup that I've done consists in the Ubuntu box going out to internet and serving the Squid in the same eth0 NIC. I have the concern when the all traffic come, this lonely NIC can't handle it. So I want to setup the eth1 to go out to the internet and the other one to serve the proxy. (HowTos)

Running into an issue with my iptable rule to redirect outbound traffic on port 80 to a squid proxy transparently.

Here is my interface information

eth0 = internet eth1 = physical interface eth1:0 = 192.168.0.1/24 eth1:1 = 172.16.0.0/24

My iptables rule:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 !

Squid Proxy Server 3 years 20 weeks ago

Hi everyone,

I'm currently attempt to setup a transparent proxy between my linksys router and my wifi access point.

The hardware setup like the following Linksys Router --> Ubuntu PC (2 Network Card) --> switch --> Access Point --> Laptop On the Ubuntu PC, eth0 is connected to the router, eth1 is connected to the switch

In Ubuntu, I am going to start Squid and Squish for proxy setup, but have problems in squid to make every workstation use proxy.

I have 2 servers running CentOS 6

I have a server A, that has 2 network cards. eth0 is a private test network. eth1 is the corporate network, where a proxy server must be used to access the internet. On this server I use

export http_proxy=http://proxyserver:3128/

and am able to access the internet.

I have a server B that has 1 network card.

I recently purchased a VPS and am wanting to use it as a VPN server. However, it has bandwidth limitations. So, I figured since I already have a local Squid proxy caching things for me, I could have users connect to the proxy and the proxy connect to the VPN.

i would like to setup two transparent proxy server that use Ubuntu Server and Squid as transparent proxy. My idea is to synchronize the cache between Proxy 1 and proxy 2. so both Proxy server will have same cache inside them. I wish to use Rsync that is an open source utility that provides fast incremental file transfer.

No matter how hard i tried skype still can not connect to its server.

Able to access other HTTPS servers like gmail,but skype is not working through proxy.

squid proxy server

eth0:192.168.2.22 with internet connection

eth1:192.168.1.1 connected to LAN

Squid running on port 3128

able to access HTTP and HTTPS websites but skype can not.

specified Host and port in squids connection page,but

We have setup up a apache reverse proxy in conjunction with squid as a caching proxy for amazon S3. A server application is communicating with this proxy layer and caching works just fine saving bandwidth for our customer.

All this was fine until the complete communication was over http.

I have setup a squid proxy server in an old computer. I had to get another nic card to make all other computers to go thru proxy to get to internet. I believe I enabled the new card but I don't know how or what to do next.
