Subject: RE: Problem starting transparent proxy (squid)

I have loaded all the modules you specfied in the previous mail (no using
the scripts you gave me, since I cannot get it working. I just load them by
typing in the terminal). After that, I type the commands you stated (with no
errors), and I restarted my squid.  I have set the DNS server of the
workstation pointing to my ISP, the default gateway pointing to my Linux
server. My workstation can now ping the IP address of the ISP, but it cannot
ping other external IP addresses. How am I gonna solve the problem?

are many ways to do this. One is to put them in
/etc/rc.d/rc.local. Another is to create a "service" script and put it in
/etc/rc.d/init.d, but for a beginner I'd suggest /etc/rc.d/rc.local

correct. You can see it on your terminal as the machine boots (the snippet
I gave you came from rc.local on one of my machines)

Yes, sorry about that. The snippet is from a 6.2 machine. Use this to load
all modules avialable on your 7.0 machine

        # Load all available ip_masq modules
        OLD_DIR="$PWD"
        cd /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ipv4/
        for amod in ip_masq* ; do
                masqmod=`echo ${amod} | sed -e 's/\.o$//'`
                echo installing $masqmod
                /sbin/modprobe "$masqmod"
        done
        cd "$OLD_DIR"

see above

Ok, in your case replace 192.168.1 with 192.168.0. Ignore the last
3. You will have to do some reading/learning about subneting networks,
but for now just believe me that when using syntax like 192.168.0.0/24 you
are saying to cover all IPs starting with 192.168.0.

Thats a crappy explanation, but ohers can do better, and I honestly don't
have time right now. Run these ipchains commands, setup a pc to use it as
it's gateway and see how it works for you.
