attempting to transparently proxy with this script to no avail

[joe z]

this script runs everything fine just the redirect doesn't. the proxy works 
fine when browser pointed at it.

/sbin/depmod -a
/sbin/modprobe ipt_LOG
/sbin/modprobe ipt_REDIRECT

iptables -F
iptables -t mangle -F
iptables -t nat -F
iptables -X

echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
iptables -t mangle -P PREROUTING ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -P PREROUTING ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -m tcp -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 
8080

first--when you look at the output of:

  iptables -t nat -vnxL

do you see the packet count incrementing on that rule--if so, good.

second--the proxy *is* running on port 8080, right?  k--moving on...

third--the proxy *is* configured for transparent operation, right?  for
example, if the proxy in question is squid:

  http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/TransparentProxy.html#s4

as an aside--it would be better form to specify only packets arriving on
the inside interface in your REDIRECT rule; i.e, "-i $INSIDE_IF"

um...  err...  never mind...  wait--i'll bite...this machine *is*
forcibly in the path between all web browsers and the Internet, right?

attempting to transparently proxy with this script to no avail

[joe z]

hello all,
im attempting to run a transparent proxy with the iptables script below... 
to no avail. this box sits inline between the firewall and internal switch 
and everything works except the transparent proxy part. the box routes 
traffic properly and when i point the browser at the proxy on 8080, all 
good. proxy goes dansguardian -> squid -> privoxy. additionally i have snort 
inline running as well and that works. the box is fc2 and squid is installed 
via yum. 11.10 is internal and 11.8 faces the firewall. so far i have tried 
multiple combinations; when i comment out all rules except INPUT, OUTPUT, 
and FORWARD ACCEPT, all good; when i comment out the nat table lines and 
uncomment the mangle table and use the queue and snort, all good; when i 
comment out the mangle table and queue and uncomment the nat redirect 
(leaving commented the -j DROP) everything works, just not the proxy... in 
other words http passes through the box but it doesn't get sent to/through  
the proxy(i confirmed this with tcpdump) and, most interestingly, when i 
comment the redirect and uncomment the -j DROP, it doesn't drop http or 
anything for that matter(?). below is the script and the relevant squid.conf 
entries. any thoughts? am i missing something(obvious?) here?

Hi,

some ideas. May be, they are wrong.

First, you shouldn't filter in the nat table, and so not in
PREROUTING. PREROUTING sees only the very first packet of a
connection. The rest is done in the state-machine. Subsequent packets
of a connection don't traverse PREROUTING. Thus you should stick to
the usual approach: filter in the filter table and use the nat table
for NAT.

Proxy. Seems that your squid box has two nics and that the nics are
the *same* network (xxx.xxx.11.0/24 ?). Right ? If so, you have
definitely a routing problem and an unclean network setup. You should
solve this first. Give the firewall side e.g. the network
xxx.xxx.12.0/24 and point the default gateway to the firewall. May be,
this solves your problem already. If not, it would be great if could
supply the new network layout (may be a little ascii art ?) and some
captured packets to see where the traffic goes.

HTH

Jörg
