If you don't feel like reading the entire thread: basically I want to limit caching to only forward proxy requests. It has been suggested that I just put 'CacheEnable disk /' in a virtual host that only does proxy. Although its a clean solution, it will not work for my situation.
In my testing I have found that if I try caching all http:// proxy requests: (CacheEnable disk http://) I get no cache entries for any http proxy request. However if i explicitly put the protocol and the host ( CacheEnable disk http://www.apache.org/) and make the same proxy request to http://www.apache.org it does make cache entries. Shouldn't CacheEnable disk http:// satisfy http://www.apache.org?? I think this may be a bug.
Also, if I want to cache every possible forward proxy request do I have to specify every protocol? (CacheEnable disk http:// , ftp://, https:// etc.). This seems like a sloppy way to do it (and at this point does not work).
Thanks

The docs imply that the protocol allone should be enough. I don't
know beyond that.
