Greetings!
I've had squid 2.2 installed for a week or so now on my home network which
consists of one linux system (200mhz pentium 64mb 8gb disk), three windoze
machines, and a an old sun which is used as an X-terminal. I have squid
setup to use 800mb or disk for the queue.
It appears things are not being cached as expected. For example, I
frequently use: http://weather.noaa.gov/cgi-bin/mgettaf.pl which
references several gif images which certainly should be cached by now
since I use this URL daily. Here's what the access log shows:

The above entry is the last entry after using the link (from netscape)
several times today. There are TCP_MEM_HIT/200 and TCP_REFRESH_MISS/200
in the logs, but the TCP_MISS/200 seems to rule, even on links that are
very static such as gif images. Anyone have any ideas???
