Building a transparent proxy requires more than just Squid. See
the section "Transparent Caching/Proxying" in the Squid FAQ:

    http://squid.nlanr.net/Squid/FAQ/FAQ.html

I set up Squid with IP Filter[1] and transproxy[2] on Solaris 2.6 but
had trouble with connections hanging. Has anyone else had similar
trouble? I'm going to see how OpenBSD performs with the same setup.
