Got a real wierd one this time. Quite a few customers using VSNL in 
Bombay seem to be suddenly getting only cached pages. The only thing I 
have figured out is that VSNL is using a transparent proxy which mildly 
speaking has started cacheing page aggressively.

A certain page is rendered in a certain way depending on certain cookies 
that I send - frankly speaking I am at my wits end trying to figure out 
why would VSNL's proxy server think that that particular page should be 
cached.

The only thing I can think of that I changed is that I stopped the 
Pragma/Cache-control/Expires headers for a day or two and now even on 
turning it on seems to have no effect :(.

I dont see a last modified date anywhere in the HTTP header returned by 
Apache.

The current setup returns the following.
---------------------------------------
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2002 07:11:11 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.20 (Unix) mod_gzip/1.3.19.1a mod_perl/1.25
Pragma: no-cache
Cache-control: no-cache
Content-Length: 42701
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html
Expires: Tue, 29 Jan 2002 07:11:11 GMT
---------------------------------------

Shouldnt any sane proxy server be fetching a fresh page everytime for 
this URL ??
