How To Rebuild The Squid 2.6 Debian Package with Support For X-Forwarded-For Headers

This article describes how you can rebuild the Squid 2.6 package for Debian Etch with support for X-Forwarded-For headers - this feature is not enabled in the default Debian Etch Squid package. This feature is useful if you are using Squid as a reverse proxy for your web site and are using a load balancer (such as HAProxy) in front of Squid - it allows us to track the client's original IP address instead of the load balancer's IP address (which to Squid appears as the client).
