Hello everybody,

I am tring to make tproxy work with our squid but I have a problem with the iptable to redirect traffic to squid now.
I have compiled a linux kernel 2.6.22.18 patched with tproxy-4.0.3-2.6.22. and iptable 1.3.8. For squid, i'am using Version 2.6.STABLE5.
I think my kernel is well compiled because I see all the tproxy module loaded :

proxy:/usr/src/linux# lsmod | grep -i proxy
xt_tproxy               1984  0
xt_TPROXY               1984  1
iptable_tproxy          6468  2 xt_TPROXY
ip_tables              12420  2 iptable_filter,iptable_tproxy
x_tables               14564  5 ipt_LOG,xt_tcpudp,xt_tproxy,xt_TPROXY,ip_tables


My iptables rules is like this :

iptables -t tproxy -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp  -i gre1 --dport 80 -j LOG
iptables -t tproxy -A PREROUTING -p tcp -m tcp  -i gre1 --dport 80 -j TPROXY --on-port 80

when I check it with tcpdump, I see traffic for http port on the gre1 interface

proxy:/usr/src/linux# tcpdump -n -i gre1
tcpdump: WARNING: arptype 778 not supported by libpcap - falling back to cooked socket
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode

when I check it on access.log of my squid, my requests are actually sent to the squid.

But it is not the client ip which is sent to the Internet but the squid box IP.

when I issue iptables-save -c command to check if there are traffic that enter my iptables rule, the counter so zero traffic.

proxy:/usr/src/linux# iptables-save -t tproxy -c
# Generated by iptables-save v1.3.8 on Wed Feb 20 13:07:45 2008
*tproxy
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [128:11992]

[0:0] -A PREROUTING -i gre1 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j TPROXY --on-port 80 --on-ip 0.0.0.0
COMMIT

even the LOG don't tell me anything about traffic in gre1 interfaces.

what I see in the log is this error that appear from time to time:

Feb 20 13:08:31 proxy squid[2353]: parseHttpRequest: NF getsockopt(SO_ORIGINAL_DST) failed: (92) Protocol not available
Feb 20 13:08:31 proxy squid[2353]: tproxy ip=62.56.240.17,0x11f0383e,port=0 ERROR ASSIGN

Can anyone tell me why my iptables don't redirect the traffic to the squid?

Best Regards
