Hi everyone,

Can anyone help please? The transparent squid firewall rule is not being
created correctly.

Thank you,
Chris

Subject: [pfSense] Restart of pfsense loses Squid's transparent
proxyredirect rule

Hello all,

I've experienced this issue before but never got round to asking for
help...

Now on a fresh install of 2.1.5 64-bit, installed the squid package, set
up transparent proxy, restarted, yet there is no firewall rule?

: pfctl -sa | grep 3128

Nothing ...

Restart the service, still nothing. Change the port number in the Proxy
config to 8080, and now there's a rule:

: pfctl -sa | grep 8080
rdr on em0 inet proto tcp from any to ! (em0) port = http -> 127.0.0.1
port 8080
pass in quick on em0 proto tcp from any to ! (em0) port = 8080 flags
S/SA keep state

Change the port back to 3128 and now there's a rule for that but not one
for 8080, just as you'd expect:

: pfctl -sa | grep 3128
rdr on em0 inet proto tcp from any to ! (em0) port = http -> 127.0.0.1
port 3128
pass in quick on em0 proto tcp from any to ! (em0) port = 3128 flags
S/SA keep state

Restart the squid service and the 3128 rule remains. 
Restart the server and it's gone again.

This machine is currently routing between the main network and a subnet
until it is 'promoted' to become the WAN router, so there's plenty
opportunity to troubleshoot. What might be causing this? I guess some
dependency during the startup process, but then why would a restart of
the squid service not affect things? I did find the following bug,
however it is marked 'resolved'.

Thanks in advance, 
Chris
