Hi Fabian,

1. Enabled debug 128 & 65536 in privoxy/config
2. # privoxy --no-daemon  (to see headers output)
3. In privoxy/user.action
	{+client-header-tagger{user-agent}}
	/

	{+forward-override{forward-socks5t 127.0.0.1:9050 .} }
	TAG:^User-Agent: FreeBSD

4. Switch the user-agent of browser to custom testing entry: FreeBSD
http://config.privoxy.org/show-request confirms: User-Agent: FreeBSD

PROBLEM:
* Traffic from browser is NOT redirected to Tor proxy
* Traffic from browser to http://config.privoxy.org shows correct header
+forward-override{forward-socks5t 127.0.0.1:9050 .}

So packets to External are not redirected, but packets to Internal are?
I can't figure it out. Thanks for your help.
