[squid-users] {Solved] [squid-users] Transparent Proxy not working for HTTPS, ftp etc.. Plz help

Hello all,

Anyways I sorted it my self. The problem was with my ip configuration.
I have created IP Aliasing in my LAN nic. that is it had 2 IPs. one
in 10.10.10.1 which is the gateway for my one set of LAN clients. The
other was 192.168.1.150 which I was supposed to add to add other
clients. But when i removed the 192.168.1.150 ip definition from the
interface it
all worked fine.
