No, sibling relations automatically enforce this by using a Cache-Control header sent by the requesting Squid. > Questions: > 1. Anything wrong in the confs above?

If squids sits right next to the apaches (on a gigabit switch), can I not use digests? cache digests is between the squids, and may be quite beneficial to you as ICP can then be skipped on known cache hits. > 4.

Probably, but you may want to consider implementing this using an external acl instead of a redirector.. > 5.
