But I have squid and linux version (which matches with the FAQ) as follows,
still I am able to do the transparent caching without any issues.
The FAQ says "To support netfilter transparent interception on Linux 2.4
Squid must be compiled with the --enable-linux-netfilter option."

    Squid Cache: Version 2.5.STABLE3-20030802
