Web GUI for varnish

As an early christmas gift, here is a snapshot of the web GUI being developed for the 2.1 release: http://varnish.projects.linpro.no/wiki/WebGui It is not 100% finished (saving state and security being the major issues and the code needs some cleaning), but I hope people can test and play

What to do when the backend sends no caching information?

Hi All, In testing varnish in different situations, I came accross a backend that sends no caching information in its responses, no Expires, cache-control or anything. Ok, I thought, I'll just set the TTL on that object (namely an html page) in VCL. Well, turns out varnish may be setting the ttl
