Hi, I was trying to go direct in case of videos (in a reverse proxy setup): acl askdirect req_mime_type -i video/x-flv always_direct allow askdirect But it is still cached and the siblings are still queried: 1216634995.710 15 192.168.17.15 TCP_MEM_HIT/200 2109225 GET http://192.168.16.23/videos/macpc.flv - NONE/- video/x-flv 1216634995.734 40 192.168.17.11 TCP_MISS/200 2109319 GET http://192.168.16.23/videos/macpc.flv - SIBLING_HIT/squid2 video/x-flv Any idea which setting I miss? Also, would 'video/' work? Or '.video/.'? Or '.*video/.*'? Thx, JD
