Yes, it contains:
Vary: User-Agent

That's why you get a new one cached for a different browser.

Ouch. OK, I confirmed what you're saying by using different machines browsing to the same (cached) page all using the same browser (IE). None of them got served the cached page... except the original requester.

Is there any way to *force* the cached page being served irrespective of the client user-agent and/or client IP?

/sidebar: where on earth did you learn about the Vary header impacting caching?

Read the HTTP spec!  The server has declared that it will serve a
*different* page to a different user agent.

If that's for the web - as opposed to an application that's limited
to your choice of user-agents, then it's certainly wrong.
Either it's bogus (i.e. the server will do no such thing)
or BAD (Broken As Designed).  So getting rid of it would be a
very good idea.
