OpenVPN Support Forum

Hi all!
I have a squid server on a VPN client and a VPN server with WAN IP
I use a port forwarder (rinetd) on VPN server to redirect user request to Squid Server
I want squid logs user public IP instead VPN server IP

This is an example:
User (Wan IP: 199.9.9.9) connects to VPN server by public IP (Wan IP: 188.8.8.8 - VPN IP: 10.8.0.1) on port 3128
User's request is forwarded to Squid server on VPN client (VPN IP: 10.8.0.10) on same port 3128
Squid works but logs 10.8.0.1 instead of 199.9.9.9 on access.log

Does anyone have a solution to propose to me?
Thank you in advance

I have installed openvpn and squid on same server. I want vpn client browsing should go through squid without setting up client browser serting

There must be need to define iptable rule? Please advice rule how to accomplish this

Hello!
Try to use iptables to redirect specific tcp port (80,443) to squid proxy server. Something like this
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m owner ! --uid-owner root --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080
