Hi All -

I tried to search for "redirects" on the mailing list and the wiki,
but couldn't find anything that would fit our needs.  We have a CDN
that, when queried, will return the following:

http://router.domain.com/somefile -> will return a 302 to either:
+ http://sanjose.domain.com/somefile (if you are in the west coast); or
+ http://newyork.domain.com/somefile (if you are in the east coast)

We are going to take baby steps and put varnish on the edge (instead
of replacing the entire thing).  Questions are:

1) We are planning to configure varnish to point to router.domain.com
as parent.  Is Varnish able to follow thru the subsequent redirects to
[sanjose or newyork]; and return the content to the client?

2) Assuming the answer to number 1 is yes, and Varnish gets
/somefile1.txt from sanjose, then when the caching expires and varnish
does a "if-not-modified" query to the parent, but gets redirected to
newyork.  Would it treat the same object as the same (assuming server
says file is the same)?

Thanks
Anderson
