Hi,

I'll start with appologising for being slightly off-topic, although
this is the best group I could think of to ask this question.

I am running a setup with a webserver, a proxy and the clients. Clients
request a page through the proxy and the webserver creates every page
on the fly. For this it uses SSI together with a template .shtml and 
(via subrequests) several dynamic mod_perl scripts or content files.
Now for the large part of the requests the pages should be updated
every minute or so, so they are cacheable.
But... the content within the page is dependent on the user having
authenticated himself or not. The authentication is handled via 
cookies. If a user is authenticated he gets a different page, using
the same URL.

Now my question: is there a way to (trick) use the caching facilities
of the proxy server (apache)?  The normal setup won't work, since it
will serve "authenticated" pages cached under the URL to 
not-authenticated users requesting that URL. 

Anyone?

Bye!

Frank
