are you using squid in transparent mode?
if yes then is your squid box masqurading connections?
If not then you will have to make it masqurade connections as in transparent mode only port 80 traffic is redirected to squid.

Try www.pmfirewall.com
and then install it.
Hope this will take care of everything.

My apologies for terming RAID0 as a killer :) the only problem with RAID0 is no redundancy and they why none of the official squid develpers have promoted it. Secondly i must accept that i was much too eager to post :) rather than digging out the matter personally. At the moment almost all my caches...

for blocking kazaa the most appripriate way is to use pathomatic to update your iptables and use the new iptables module which blocks any connection containing zzzz@kazza in http header

yeps the main reason for that is squid performs many read writes per second which comes as a bottle neck when RAID any RAID is considered none of the squid developers or squid configurators prefer using RAID in my personal opinion using RAID creates a Total cost os ownsership problem along with the ...
