Hi !

I want to inform you that i have discover a bug with 802.1Q technologie and
SQUID.

802.1Q is for VLAN's :
the module 8021Q is use to configure a network card to be present on
different VLAN's (tagged port).

My previous installation was :

VLAN 3 on eth0
10.0.0.0/255.254.0.0
routeur SDSL (gateway) 10.0.0.1

VLAN 2 on eth0.2 (vconfig add eth0 2)
10.20.0.0/255.255.0.0

VLAN 1 on eth0.1 (vconfig add eth0 1)
10.10.0.0/255.255.0.0

With this configuration, i was ending weirds issues : i was not able to log
in hotmail, yahoo!mail, e-bay, or perform any transaction on net.
For exemple, with hotmail, the https transaction was done and recorded on
log, but the following url was not recorded in log and a basic error message
prompt on navigator (DNS error or serveur not found).

By despair, I change my network conf to use a different networdk card for
each VLAN and it's finally works.
So, don't use 8021Q module with SQUID !

NOTE : I use 8021Q for my data serveur (SAMBA and netatalk) and it works
fine
