I did run varnishlog from the command line without any arguments...it could not reach the webserver because I turned it off...I was hoping to setup varnish in such a way that if the webserver fails...varnish will keep serving pages.
For example: if user A requests index.html and varnish caches it...then 5 minutes later user B requests index.html (and varnish still has it in the cache) then it should just serve up the file..without ever going to check the backend. I know that it might not be the number one intended use for varnish...but that is what I am trying to do...any suggestions?
