I'm using snort 2.7 on two machines, one at a hub next to the router
and the firewall and since yesterday a second sensor on my proxy
(squid). All web-traffic must go through the proxy.
The first sensor gives information about e.g. that one uses google
desktop but does not say which client (of course, as source is the
proxy). So I installed snort as a second sensor on the proxy but
without success. The alerts the first sensors finds are not found on
the second sensor (the squid protocol might differ from HTTP).

Is there a way to configure snort to reveal which exact client "breaks"
policies?

Add 3128 to HTTP_PORTS in your snort.conf.  All of your HTTP rules
will be looking on port 80 and the traffic to thw proxy is on 3128.

Still no luck. I get tons of 'http_inspect', lots of 'icmp' stuff, but no 
single 'porn', 'Google Desktop', ... is caught (while on the external sensor 
it is; and I use the same configuration as on the external sensor and only 
changed EXTERNAL_NET).

var HOME_NET [192.168.0.0/24,192.168.1.0/24,192.168.2.0/24]
var EXTERNAL_NET any
