Jeffrey,

As I can see Iptables will be used to redirect packages from your netowork to the tproxy/cache system. Withou this you will need to set the proxy into all your clients... This will not be a transparent cache.

just curious, but is there like some kind of a version number for tproxy? Saw a "tproxy-4.0" directory under "legacy" in downloads (http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/tproxy/obsolete/), but no mention of anything on the main page, nor readme, nor the files in the patch (well, not exactly but.. unless it's "1.5.2.5 <http://1.5.2.5>"?)

TProxy 4.0 became available in July 2007, and now its newer version is in the http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/tproxy directory. This version doesn't have a tproxy table, both the target (TPROXY) and the match (socket) is used in the mangle table.

Current version is 4.1, but sometimes it is also called as simply tproxy4.

I don't mention the older (obsolete) versions anywhere because it is still available if someone want to use it, but they are not maintanined (except TProxy 4.0, as a part of our product's kernel).

ok, thanks. One question - iptables is really for user-level (as in, "a command-line tool") stuff, right? so if all we need is the tproxy functionality, do we really need to bother with patching and compiling iptables?
