Hi, The finance guys modified some documents (.xls, .doc, .ppt, .pps, .pdf) in the intranet every day and it�s very important that whoever consults them, gets the latest version. However, recent changes are not reflected so the following case is common: two different persons consulting the same document in the intranet at the same time see different figures (one got the latest version and the other the one before). Another case could be a powerpoint file with hyperlinks inside, if one hyperlink is modified some people see the change while others don�t.
Our proxy is Squid 2.4 STABLE 7 and as I thought the cache was the problem I made the following changes to squid.conf: acl DenyCacheDOC urlpath_regex -i \.doc$ \.doc? \.doc; acl DenyCachePDF urlpath_regex -i \.pdf$ \.pdf? \.pdf; acl DenyCacheXLS urlpath_regex -i \.xls$ \.xls? \.xls; acl DenyCachePPT urlpath_regex -i \.ppt$ \.ppt? \.ppt; acl DenyCachePPS urlpath_regex -i \.pps$ \.pps? \.pps; no_cache deny DenyCacheDOC no_cache deny DenyCachePDF no_cache deny DenyCacheXLS no_cache deny DenyCachePPT no_cache deny DenyCachePPS But to no avail... the problem keeps appearing... my guess is that the clients are caching the files and therefore the changes I made in Squid are not working... Any ideas? Is there anything else I could modify in my squid.conf or in the clients?
