Hi there, Quick basic config question on a different server I have had to set-up. The server refuses to cache any items. Static test page (3751bytes) always give a cache MISS. I am unsure what I missed ;( Apologies for a such a simple configuration question.

The cache is setup and initialised (I did this with the squid3 -z option). Regards.
