RE: [squid-users] Linux + TPROXY + Remote Squid

Hi All,

I'm jumping in the middle here but I have tproxy working with a separate router as follows;

Here are the rules from my router.

# Don.t mark webcache traffic
$IPTABLES -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j ACCEPT -p tcp --dport 80 -s $SQUID
# Internal subnets to exclude
$IPTABLES -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j ACCEPT -p tcp --dport 80 -d 192.168.0.0/16 #Don.t cache internal
$IPTABLES -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j ACCEPT -p tcp --dport 80 -s 192.168.0.0/16 #Don.t cache internal

# Now mark our traffic
$IPTABLES -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j MARK --set-mark 5 -p tcp --dport 80

ip rule add fwmark 5 table 5
ip route add default via $SQUID dev bond0.8 table 5

On my squid box I have the following Iptables rules

*mangle
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [47356:2123379]
:INPUT ACCEPT [44233:3551720]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [14057:711976]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [27932:3507208]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [42005:4222687]
:DIVERT - [0:0]
-A PREROUTING -p tcp -m socket -j DIVERT
-A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j TPROXY --on-port 3129 --on-ip 0.0.0.0 --tproxy-mark 0x1/0x1
-A DIVERT -j MARK --set-xmark 0x1/0xffffffff
-A DIVERT -j ACCEPT
COMMIT

#This makes sure that the traffic comes back to this squid box.
*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [627:29853]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [46:2562]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [93:5582]
-A POSTROUTING -s 10.0.0.0/8 -o eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j SNAT --to-source #SQUIDIP
COMMIT

ip -f inet rule add fwmark 1 lookup 100
ip -f inet route add local default dev eth0 table 100

This system works well for me and I have multiple squid proxies is a transparent load balanced config (using Linux virtual server)

I've had 10 or 15 users testing it and with no complaints so far but I had to use the latest source code (not build 3.2.0.17)

the marking is not all the thing.
you should also use routing tables based on the marking so in the prerouting mangle you mark and then the routing tables are compatible with the routing table.

i will think of something.
but it's out of the scope of squid and moving to routing.
