The default squid.conf file contains the following lines: acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? no_cache deny QUERY
Cheers Chris, i already commented these out. I think i need to have a transparent proxy configured so that both incoming and outgoing port 80 requests redirect through Squid's port. Otherwise the redirector just hands it off to port 80. It works this way. I'll just have to convince the sysadmin as much :-) Cheers Jim
Which states that URL path containing either the string "cgi-bin" or a question mark (?) will not be cached. Usually that's a safe bet, as both contain dynamic content that is not guaranteed to have freshness information included. Either comment out the default no_cache line or add lines like... acl mysite dstdomain .server.com acl QUERY urlpath_regex cgi-bin \? no_cache allow mysite no_cache deny QUERY ...to specify that all requests in the domain server.com should be eligible for caching. I'm not certain the second option will work, but it's worth a try... Chris
