Strange... In the browser I'm downloading a file. Unfortunately the server doesn't have the correct mime type, so mozilla is showing me the binary data. The download takes some time, so I fire up an xterm, and do:
http_proxy=http://localhost:8080/ wget http://www.dream-multimedia-tv.de/dm7000/update/rel107.img The wget is immediately done, and results in an incomplete file. Here's the log: 21:13:03 wurtel wwwoffled[21592]: HTTP Proxy connection from host localhost ([0:0:0:0:0:ffff:7f00:1]). 21:13:03 wurtel wwwoffled[21592]: Forked wwwoffles -real (pid=28536). 21:13:03 wurtel wwwoffles[28536]: URL='http://www.dream-multimedia-tv.de/dm7000/update/rel107.img'. 21:13:03 wurtel wwwoffles[28536]: Cache Access Status='New Page'. 21:13:39 wurtel wwwoffled[21592]: HTTP Proxy connection from host localhost ([0:0:0:0:0:ffff:7f00:1]). 21:13:39 wurtel wwwoffled[21592]: Forked wwwoffles -real (pid=28546). 21:13:39 wurtel wwwoffles[28546]: URL='http://www.dream-multimedia-tv.de/dm7000/update/rel107.img'. 21:13:39 wurtel wwwoffles[28546]: Cache Access Status='Cached Page Used'. 21:13:39 wurtel wwwoffled[21592]: Child wwwoffles exited with status 0 (pid=28546). 21:14:55 wurtel wwwoffled[21592]: Child wwwoffles exited with status 0 (pid=28536). As you can see, while the first wwwoffles was stil busy, the second sees the incomplete page, and uses that, assuming that it's complete... I thought I had done this sort of thing before, and that resulted in both clients getting the data simultaneously... Version 2.8a. Paul Slootman
