[squid-users] Squid 3.x or 4.x acting as a transparent http proxy (NOT https)

No unfortunately nothing like this is in our lab for FreeBSD - but default Squid package in pfSense runs transparently without issues I have heard (or with other issues than you have).

Best regards,

Thanks for the quick reply. Do you have a version of these that is BSD-specific?

I'm ultimately going to run Squid exclusively on BSD, although was using Linux as a means to validate that the functionality to do transparent proxying was broken (confirmed in both OS').

I'll give these a go tonight on Ubuntu and see where I get.

I do see the Apache/Web Safety hooks as "interesting", but they should be decoupled as they're not required to get this working (and are likely prohibited in many-to-most enterprises who would deploy a proxy in this fashion).
