Varnish only supports ETags "in front" that is, only when a client sends us an ETag will we respons correctly. Towards the backend Etags are not supported although I think there are patches floating around that might address that. If I recall correctly Slink and some Rackspace people where eager to see ETags in Varnish. -- Per Buer, Varnish Software Phone: +47 21 98 92 61 / Mobile: +47 958 39 117 / skype: per.buer _______________________________________________ varnish-misc mailing list [email protected] http://lists.varnish-cache.org/mailman/listinfo/varnish-misc
