Hi Amos, Indeed it does, but the proxy is for a custom server/browse setup and it's essential the browser doesn't cache, however, the server behind squid is performing expensive operations so I want squid to cache it. Basically, I would cache in the browser, but I don't have granular enough control to cache content in the way I need. site1.com might look one way 1 second and then immediately serve completely different content based on what a user does (a different header is sent). Essentially the browser is getting confused and bleeding content between these two (what it believes are identical, but aren't) sites. In short, this isn't for browsing the internet :) Tom On Thu, May 22, 2014 at 10:30 AM, Amos Jeffries <squid3@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 22/05/2014 8:30 p.m., Tom Holder wrote: >> Is it possible to get squid to throw out a no-cache header? >> >> I want squid to still serve up resources it might have in it's own >> cache, but I want to force the browser not to cache what it's being >> served. > > That defeats the primary purpose and benefit of caching: getting content > stored as close to the user as possible. > > What version of Squid are you using? > Are you running it as forward, reverse, or interception proxy? > > Amos > -- Tom Holder Systems Architect Follow me on: [Twitter] [Linked In] www.Simpleweb.co.uk Tel: 0117 922 0448 Simpleweb Ltd.
