Make sure you have configured Squid to support ordinary HTTP/1.1
requests, as described in http://www.benzedrine.cx/transquid.html

I have a squid server setup within my internal network and it does
work since I can manually set the proxy information into my desktops
and I am good to go. But I want to do transparent proxying.. Anyway
since this isn't a squid mailing list... I am sure my problem is with
my routing/firewall rules...
What I want do is whenever desktops on the internal network want to
connect to the web (without setting proxy settings, so users don't
know there exists a web proxy), they are instead redirected to the
squidserver.
My router is running OpenBSD + PF, my squid server is running FreeBSD
+ PF.
In my router I added a one line rdr rule basically like this
rdr on $int_if proto tcp from {$desktop1, $desktop2} to any port www -
> $squidserver
Connecting from a browser on one of the 2 desktops times out...
Of course this won't work according to (http://www.openbsd.org/faq/pf/
rdr.html#rdrnat)
So I try the NAT & inetd+nl methods listed. Now my browser shows a
squid error response saying it was an invalid request because
information was missing which is from what I read should be the case
when using NAT. But I don't understand why the inetd+nl method
doesn't work.
Well like I said the squid server works fine when I manually input
the squid server and port into my desktop browser side tracking the
redirecting rules... So I am sure this is a firewall issue with my
router...
How can I redirect web traffic from my desktops to $squidserver and
keep the original (web address) destination address intact and all
other data ?
