[squid-users] Re: [SQU] WCCP + linux 2.4.2 + iptables?

I had a same problem.
I tried to run Squid with 2.2.17 Kernel. With Cisco's WCCP Ensign.
But first, I want to use Squid's wccp.
I configured the router to redirect the packet.
The funny thing is, router see squid, and see I_SEE_YOU paketsl.
Yet, it fails to redirect any web queries,
Only think I can think of is the router's configuration (or ISO version who
knows...)

I am right now waiting for Cisco WCCP, to see wether my router is actually
working.
If so, I will go back to use Red Hat 2.2.17 Kernel with module installation.

Let me know if you have any questions.
