I am using Ubuntu Server 12.04. My IP is 192.168.4.160. I want to route the HTTP traffic generated locally from my system destined to a particular URL (say x.x.x.x) to pass through proxy server. My proxy server is 192.168.0.13:3128. I added following rule in iptables

sudo iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -p tcp -d x.x.x.x --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.13:3128

However, this rule does not seem to work for me. I captured packet in wireshark and I saw that packet is still going to x.x.x.x

I am not very much familiar with iptables, so please try to be specific. Thanks in advance
