Hallo,

nachfolgende Mail hängt antwortlos seit drei Tagen bei freebsd-security
und hat mich reichlich stutzig gemacht. Ich wäre auch der Meinung, daß die
erste Zeile für die Unerreichbarkeit der zweiten sorgen würde. Liege ich
da falsch?

Gruß

Subject: Transparent proxy rules

Hi All,

I have tryed to install transparent proxy but I didn´t
understand the correct funcionality of the ipfw rules
to squid transparent proxy.

I installed transparent proxy like a tutorial that says
to include the follow rules in ipfw:

allow tcp from any to any
fwd 127.0.0.1,3128 tcp from any to any 80

Well, how ipfw read line by line, I think it´ll leave the
server without firewall, once the first rule allow everything.

But, if I test the proxy, it really works, that is to say,
the tcp frame pass to the second rule (fwd).
How is this possible?
