1) Before you start playing around with squid and firewall you
have to make sure your FreeBSD box works as a gateway.
2) When this is done look into google for setup of squid as a
transparent proxy (these are two or three entries in a config
file).
3) enable firewall in /etc/rc.conf with lines like
firewall_enable="YES"
firewall_script="/etc/firewall.conf"
4) edit your /etc/firewall.conf with something like
ipfw add 500 fwd 127.0.0.1 tcp from any to any 80 recv rl0
ipfw add 60000 allow all from any to any
where rl0 is the device name of your NIC.
5) reboot

Uli.
