I am trying to setup squid to tunnel via openvpn so that I can just enter an Ip and port in my browser settings and use it as a US proxy. My server is a OpenVZ VM. Running into some issues:
I setup openvpn using : http://safesrv.net/install-openvpn-on-centos/
as part of that guide I also ran:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o venet0 -j SNAT --to-source
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 10.8.0.0/24 -j SNAT --to-source
Installed squid using this guide: http://www.server-world.info/en/note?os=CentOS_6&p=squid
from that guide changed acl lan src 10.0.0.0/24 to acl lan src 10.8.0.0/24
Next, I went to my browser proxy settings and put - 10.8.0.1 in the HTTP field. Put the port I had setup in the squid config file and tried to load a page. Nothing connecting.
Any help? What am I doing wrong?
