I know how to have squid work as a transparent proxy. You put it into transparent mode then use your router or IPTABLES to forward port 80 to the squid port. I would like to do the same for SSL. Every guide I see mentions setting up keys on the squid server.
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.
Hi all,
We are having a problem with traffic passing through our Squid proxy server, where by it is reducing the bandwidth of clients passing through it to 10% of that of clients NOT passing through it's proxy.
The ONLY function of this is URL filtering. There is no user management, reporting, bandwidth allocation etc on this.
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.
I'd like traffic to be routed via a proxy or VPN based on a the client's hosts file (or DNS that is given to the client).
This doesn't seem like a problem for http traffic on port 80 as a simple squid proxy can do that however I don't know which protocols the client will be sending so I need to proxy all ports.
I have no control over the client apart from hosts/DNS.
Typical Proxy - Can only wor
Hello ,
I' m having a problem with the settings in : preferences ---> trackers --->
tracker-proxy
In proxy-server I've : //xxxxxxxx.com
In proxy-port : 3128 ( I run squid on the same machine )
But ... as soon as I activate the "connect with tracker via proxy" button ,
I manage a number of public hotspots, at different sites, with routers running the dd-wrt firmware and I now want to (centrally) control the websites they have access to. So, my idea initially was to implement Squid as a transparent proxy (using iptables to forward router traffic) and set it up for filtering only.
Web Filtering On Squid Proxy
This HOWTO describes how to protect your home / small enterprise network
users from objectionable internet contents with help of HTTP proxy.
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.
