[tproxy] TPROXY on ubuntu not working.

[Eliezer Croitoru]

Hey,

Squid supports layer 2+tproxy(WCCP) and I have not got into the depth of 
this code yet but WCCP clearly states that it should work in L2 which is 
the mac address.

There is the side of the TPROXY interception and the non-local ip:port 
binding.

There are smart and managed switches that will not like more then one ip 
with the same exact MAC address..
(imagine 8096+++ IP addresses with the same exact mac for the same port 
on a smart switch with L3 inspection).
