Thanks; that was it.

Is there any way to have the gateway/proxy machine also use the proxy
cache transparently?  Apparently, packets destined for outbound port 80
from the gateway/proxy machine are coming from the external interface
(cable modem) rather than the internal interface.  This makes sense as
the default route is on the external interface.  Is it possible to make
those packets appear to come from the internal interface?  Not a big
deal but I am curious.

Thanks for your help.
