Hi All.
I've got an LAN connection to the internet (ADSL) plug into my SNF and on
the other end my internal network. I've set up the transparent proxy server
so that all request to port 80 from internal network are redirected to port
3228 of squid. Everything was just working fine until I decided to make one
of my internal machine available outside the internal network. I've set up
my internal FTP server and then went on SNF (Restrict Access/Internet
Traffic) to add the FTP port to the list of public traffic allowed and then
put the IP address of my internal machine 10.0.0.23 into the forward to
internal host box. Give the FTP connection details to some guys outside the
internal network, he connected OK to the FTP machine downloaded and uploaded
OK, fantastic. But half an hour later some guys from the internal network
came to me saying "We can't connect to the internet anymore". I've looked
for ages until I finally found that as soon as I removed the FTP port
forwarding in SNF it works again. So I can't have the proxy server and port
forwarding working at the same time which is really annoying.
What am I doing wrong?????
If someone could give a workaround on this one I'll be very glad.
BTW : I've tried with manual proxy with and without auth and it still don't
work.
It seems to me that it's only the http packet that get lost somewhere
because I can still use ftp or pop when I turned port forwarding ON.
