I am in a great desire to use Net2Phone from clients PCs running on Windows 95/98 which are connected with Linux RedHat Server 7.1 through LAN. Is Squid Proxy Server capable of this thing or there need some firewall settings on the RedHat 7.1 Serverto enable Net2Phone as well as MSN and Yahoo voice chatting communication on the client PCs?

Hi,

Squid is cache server so its not capable of doing that. You can use ipchains or iptables to do ip masquerading and be able to do what you please.

You can check this how-to to be able to do ip_masq

Actually it can be done using iptables or ipchains.. it all depends on your kernel version (2.4 --> iptables, 2.2 --> ipchains)

Actually I have 4 cybercafes using net2phone, netmeeting, eyeball, messenger, icq,,,etc with a single connection

Ifyou?re interested I can email you the scripts needed to setup iptables/ipchains to allow all of this programs to work under NAT
