Martin & Henrik,

Thanks a lot for discussion but I become more confuse to choose ip_wccp or
ip_gre. From this topic I assume that ip_wccp still able to serve WCCPv2.
Now I try ip_wccp (version 1.7) that resulting no packet be redirected to
Squid box.

As my kernel is 2.4.34 (currently, I have no plan to use 2.6.x yet), I need
your advise the better module I should use.

Thx & Rgds,

Awie
