Is there any way to have the gateway/proxy machine also use the proxy cache transparently? Apparently, packets destined for outbound port 80 from the gateway/proxy machine are coming from the external interface (cable modem) rather than the internal interface. This makes sense as the default route is on the external interface. Is it possible to make those packets appear to come from the internal interface? Not a big deal but I am curious.
