hi all,

We are using squid 25s1 with kernel 2.4.19 and iproute2(+julian's
Pathes) with the following acl..

  acl short_path dst 128.0.0.0/8
  tcp_outgoing_address myIp2nd short_path

we are linked to 2 isp--one having satelite & the other OFC. We want the
above mentioned network to go thru OFC(ispB) as the sibling resides
there. But when i use squidclient mgr:server_list command i see that rtt
is still 650ms which is the time taken by satelite provider(ispA). The
OFC takes 230ms.

On this linux box we have 2 interface linked to different isp & the 3rd
serves our local network.. The rules defined are...

50: from NETB lookup ispB
50: from ofiNetA lookup ispB
50: from ofiNetB lookup ispB
75: from NETA lookup ispA
125: from ofiNetC lookup BALANCE
125: from ofiNetD lookup BALANCE
125: from ofiNetE lookup BALANCE
32766: from all lookup main
32767: from all lookup default

the default is defined in default table & is towards ispA & the other
routes are, ascan be guessed, according to the providers.

My Question is--
what can be done so that squid uses path according to the interface
defined ?
how can local generated packets(on the linux box) uses a path as wanted
by us(in the rules) ?

Awaiting a reply/suggestion/experience from you very anxiously..
