Re: [squid-users] squid proxy in a firewall Environment

Does the squid box have the relevant routing entries for lan2 in it's
routing tables? do a netstat -rn and check that lan2 is being routed via the
firewall. If they are, can you get any other services to work to the proxy?
Can you, for example, get a telnet session open from a client to the proxy?
Or a ping? (check that it's open on your firewall, though).

Subject: [squid-users] squid proxy in a firewall Environment

Hi!

I have installed a squid proxy server in my network and can't seem to get it
to work. The server is installed on between to LAN's and the user is on a
third. I have opened the http port in my firewall to the proxy server but
nothing seems to happened on the squid server.
I have also added an acl in the squid.conf file for the user LAN.

I works to access Internet from the squid server locally and to use it form
the same LAN as it is installed. But the purpose if this server is to have
it behind a firewall to increase the security of the user LAN.

This is a small map of the environment.

Internet -> Lan1 ->Squid server -> Lan2 ->Firewall -> User LAN

I have ensured in the Firewalls log that the signals goes threw to the squid
server.

Does anyone have any ideas or hints to give me?
