Well, then it will be tough. We have an existing NT box running surfwatch (to be upgraded to surfcontrol) that we use for content filtering for our normal dialup customers. Even if we migrated the filtering to a Linux box, we'd still want it to be separate from the Qube in question. on a cisco, I believe we could do a route-map to redirect the web traffic to the appropriate location. very processor intensive. not amenable to small errors. With IPChains, I can redirect to a local port, but I cannot redirect to a port on a remote machine? Maybe this is more an exercise in Squid configuration, rather than IPchains... Anybody got any bright ideas?
