Hi Derrick!

Install squid from pkgsrc with ipf transparent enabled on your (i presume
you use NAT) gateway and you can use the other machine for other purposes.
Please choose the machine with more memory when running squid.

On your ipnat file you must include this:

rdr <your_internal_NIC> 0/0 port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 3128 tcp

HTH,

Joseph
