Hi,
I've installed the Cern HTTPD also on my Linux system and I use both proxy
and caching with succes.
I use version 3.0 with libwww version 2.17
My configurationfile looks like this :

# configuration file for cern_httpd running it on luna.bc
# as a normal HTTP server.
#
# See:
# <http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/Daemon/User/Config/Overview.html>

I have installed a CERN Web server 3.0pre6 with libwww2.16beta. It works
well as a normal Web server and proxy. But the caching does not work!

there is the config file:

******************************************************

AccessLog logs/access-log
ErrorLog logs/error-log
LogFormat Common

Pass /* /home3/WebDoc/*
Caching On
CacheRoot /home3/web-cache
CacheSize 250 M
CacheClean http:* 3 month
CacheClean ftp:* 1 month
CacheClean gopher:* 10 days
CacheDefaultExpiry ftp:* 1 month
CacheDefaultExpiry gopher:* 20 days
CacheDefaultExpiry http:* 10 days
Gc On
GcDailyGc 3:00
*************************************************************

Note: I add 'CacheDefaultExpiry http:* 10 days', no cache root dir is
empty
either!

Can anybody help me out?

Any hints is appreciated!

Thanks!
