I am also all ears,

The transparent proxy without an IP address was my first attempt - but then I succumbed to the pressures of a due date and just eventually assigned an IP address to the bridged interfaces.
I suspect that it will have to be done with ip route 2 package - but even the one-way NAT does not make your machine transparent as you need to reply to ARP requests to allow the returning packet to find your machine/application....

PS, could this list please add a reply-to field to just allow me to reply to the list and not to the poster.... (so sorry Benny Amorsen for the other email).
Kind Regards
Etienne

How about using 127.0.0.1 or something else on the local subnet?
iptables should be able to redirect to that.

I don't know how you'll get traffic from squid out of the box though.
If you know a way to make squid reuse the original clients address in
the outgoing connection, I'm all ears.
