hello linux fans,
i have a linux machine with redHat 9 installed with squid proxy working as SERVER and the CLIENT linux machines use this proxy server to connect to internet.
But i would like the CLIENT machines to directly connect to Internet without any proxy settings in web -browser.
i used the command netconfig and gave the following.
gateway : Servers loacal ip
DNS server : ISP's dns server ip
but after all these settings, i was not able to connect to internet
please HELP, if u could.

Use squid in intercept caching mode. Your squid.conf should contain:
httpd_accel_host virtual httpd_accel_port 80 httpd_accel_with_proxy on httpd_accel_uses_host_header on http_accel_single_host off
Then,redirect traffic from port 80 to port 3128 (default squid port) using iptables.
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128
(Assuming your internal network is on eth0)
Reconfigure squid and it should work without configuring the browser.

Google for transparent proxy.

I am curious to know, why is the proxy running if its to be bypassed anyway? Or is the transparency needed for some machines only while others use the proxy route?

transparent != bypassed
Transparent simply means the client does not know it is connecting to the the proxy instead of the destination server as specified in the URL.

You can do this in two ways. One of them is already given out in other replies. The other way is to use NAT. Use whatever you prefer.
