Hello,
A friend a has setup my first OpenVZ server on CentOS 5.4
One container is created using centos-5 template.
I then installed squid in the VM.
My ifconfig looks like this:
[root@vps-101-gw-LL ~]# ifconfig
lo Link encap:Local Loopback
inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0

UP BROADCAST POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MTU:1500 Metric:1
I have added the following 2 lines in my rc.local:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i venet0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080
The problem is here:
When a client PC's browser tries to access any website, I get "PAGE CANNOT BE DISPLAYED" error. Requests do not reach squid.
If I setup proxy setting in the browser as 192.168.1.23:80 then the requests reach squid and the pages are served well.
I am unable to understand why should I have to define PROXY settings in browser. Standard browser requests are sent to port 80 anyways, which should reach squid.
Note: in browser's proxy setting, the PORT is set to 80. Not 3128.
Any pointers or ideas are appreciated.
Thx
