All is fine ... U just need to redirect port 80 traffic to Squid port through IPTABLES .

Here is the command , Type it on Root as superuser



iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080 .


This command will redirect ur all http traffic to squid port . This will make ur proxy a Transparent proxy .
