Couldn't you configure those VPC networks so that the AWS default route is dead by blocking all outbound (ie of no useable value to the EC2 hosts) and tell the EC2 hosts owners to change their boot scripts to delete the default gateway and replace it with your squid router? (which does have Internet access). That way you are "regaining control" of your network, and EC2 owners are "motivated" to Do The Right Thing :-) Then there'd be no need for iptable tricks on the clients. Also means you could apply this to Windows EC2 systems too I'm not an AWS guru so I have no idea if that works. I'm assuming a VPC is like a VLAN -- Cheers Jason Haar Information Security Manager, Trimble Navigation Ltd. Phone: +1 408 481 8171 PGP Fingerprint: 7A2E 0407 C9A6 CAF6 2B9F 8422 C063 5EBB FE1D 66D1
