| thank you for your reply. I agree that the backend response would be
| 200. But what I need to see is the actual response code Varnish sends
| to the frontend, which should be 206. In the example code I therefor
| explicitly read out VRT_r_resp_status , but still see code 200.

200 vs 206 is decided after vcl_deliver has run.  What is the use case
for knowing 200 vs 206 earlier?  (If it's important, we can take a look
at it, but phk indicated it probably wasn't trivial to make the decision
earlier.)

Ah, well. I just found this one in my mailbox; a summary of Trac bug activity by PHK, explaining the issue of this thread:

http://varnish-cache.org/trac/ticket/970

#===
Subject: Re: [Varnish] #970: partial content code 206 - visible as
        '206' in        varnishncsa and as '200' from VCL code

 This is sort of by design, we only decide to do range delivery after
 vcl_deliver{} has returned, because we want to make it possible to remove
 the Accept-Range header and this prevent range delivery in vcl_deliver{}.

 Is this a problem or just an annoyance for you ?

I answered the question in the ticket.

Cheers,

Johnny
