<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2>I am working on setting up a test network
using a squid proxy connected to a firewall (proxy and firewall are
both Linux). Can anyone tell me what are best practices for setting up the
proxy to be transparent? Currently I have my proxy to the firewall sitting
in a DMZ isolated from both the intranet and external network. I was
hoping to have the traffic flow as such (but it's not quite working
right):</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Tahoma size=2>Is this even the right way to go about doing
this? If not what is?</FONT></DIV>
