Fw: [squid-users] 302,303 redirect

Sorry Adrian. Actually he told me its more complex. thats why i ask squid-users for an idea or work around for this.

With 302(move temporarily) and 303(see other) HTTP status code. 3XX code actually a redirect(correct me if im wrong) so what if squid will just follow the redirect before squid process its content...
or squid will just bypass this redirects. So that the 303/302content will not be process by storeurl.

by the way i've also tried;
acl location rep_header Location . <- where 302/303 or redirect has always Location header(i think)
cache deny location
still not working so i assume cache deny is a request processing....
the only thing i know that works is;
access_log ..... location

my other weird idea(just for workaround) if we could inject no-cache to those content with header that has a Location in order impose proper caching is it possible?

I've been talking to him in private about the store url ACLs that are possible.
(The ACLs for the storeurl_access only works on request, not reply, making
it a bit of a pain.)

Yes, I told you chudy, fixing this up to cache youtube will take a bit more
effort. :)

What are you trying to do with the 302/303's? Email that to squid-users and
I'll see what we can come up with.
