We have set up squid to pass authetication requests to the origin server (squid authentication is not activated ) and for the first request, everything works as expected - -- squid sends the authentication request to the origin server -- after successful authentication, squid retrieves the object in the request. -- Subsequent requests to squid for the same object are returned by squid (from its cache) without going to the origin server. When we request the same object from a different browser session or from a different user, this is what happens: -- squid sends teh request to the origin server for authentication -- after successful authentication, squid retrieves the same object from the origin server
Here's what I see in the access log ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------- Here's the access log from the origin server 135.16.148.59 - - [02/Feb/2007:16:18:28 -0500] "GET /pat/ HTTP/1.1" 401 401 135.16.148.59 - pat [02/Feb/2007:16:18:36 -0500] "GET /pat/ HTTP/1.1" 200 366 135.16.148.59 - pat [02/Feb/2007:16:21:07 -0500] "GET /pat/overview.pdf HTTP/1.1" 304 ........ I requested the same object multiple times and nothing was logged here [ origin server log ] which is good Now I opened a new browser and did the same request - and you can see that the same object was re-requested by Squid [ and not served from its cache] 135.16.148.59 - - [02/Feb/2007:16:21:29 -0500] "GET /pat/ HTTP/1.1" 401 401 135.16.148.59 - pat [02/Feb/2007:16:21:39 -0500] "GET /pat/ HTTP/1.1" 200 366 135.16.148.59 - pat [02/Feb/2007:16:21:45 -0500] "GET /pat/overview.pdf HTTP/1.1" 304 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------- Thanks for your help.
