    squid has tcp_outgoing_address as you've already noticed. But i
really dont think it can be used for acchieving 'totally random'
outgoing address. If can choose outgoing address based on several thing,
based on ACLs.

    for a totally random output, i think you'll have an easier time
using iptables SNAT rules .....

SNAT v1.3.5 options:
 --to-source <ipaddr>[-<ipaddr>][:port-port]
                                Address to map source to.
                                (You can use this more than once)

    something as simplier as:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING ........ -j SNAT --to-source
x.x.x.10-x.x.x.200

    would randomize outgoing addresses ....

    but be careful ... completly randomizing address outputs can (surely
will) break things that uses source IP address as part of session
security, just like internet banking and several other 'secure' systems.
