That's not the rule for transparent proxying. For that you need a "forward" (or "fwd") rule, not an "allow" rule. (Of course, the "allow" rule above might still be needed, but it's not the one that actually enables the transparent proxying). > Now I want the IP: 192.168.55.22 to bypass Squid when requesting > www.hotmail.com. > > How do I go about doing this using IPFW? Can somebody shed some light > on this issue? Simply add an "allow" rule for that IP, and place it _before_ the "forward" (or "fwd") rule in your rule set: allow tcp from 192.168.55.22 to www.hotmail.com Note that the hostname is not resolved dynamically, but at the time the rule is added to teh rule set.
