Does this not duplicate the functionality of the If directives? http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/core.html#if > # Only serve cached data if no (login or other) cookies are present in the > request: > CacheEnable disk / "expr=-z %{req:Cookie}" As an aside, trying to single out and control just one cache using directives like this is ineffective, as other caches like ISP caches and browser caches will not be included in the configuration. Rather control the cache using the Cache-Control headers in the formal HTTP specs. Regards, Graham --
