How do you use ipchains to force using a proxy?  Someone earlier
mentioned it could be done, and made it sound simple, but when I tried
it, all network support stopped and I had to go to the console to fix
it.

What I have now is the basic MASQ setup.  I manually set the squid
proxy, but that can easily be undone.

Is the key to it blocking all outgoing traffic using port 80?  What if
the web site uses 8080?  Instead of blocking, can you redirect it to the
squid port?
