First of all, I really have to thank for your help very much, you are very
nice.

The workstation can only reach the Internet after setting the proxy, here
proxy setting means: the workstation's Internet Explorer is pointing its
proxy address to the DNS in Linux (say, MyDomain.com), and its proxy port
pointing to 3128 (after starting squid in Linux, with dns_nameserver
MyDomain.com at port 3128). And it also cannot ping external addresses. So I
don't know why we can never mind squid for a moment? The workstation just
cannot online without setting its proxy to it.

No, you don't need a kernel upgrade.  I had thought you were trying to
forward web requests from the gateway to some other machine, which I
think that ipchains can't do by itself.

So let's back up.  Never mind squid for a moment.  Can the workstation
reach the internet?  Can it ping external addresses, reach websites,
and such, without any proxy settings?  Let's establish that first, and
then go from there.  You've obviously already done quite a bit of
reading, because the use of squid's accelerator mode in this way isn't
exactly obvious ... so we'll get it, but we need to go one step at a
time.
