Ooooh! I just tried this with my Plone site that I've previously mentioned, where Varnish 1.1.1 was basically useless. I've only been using it for ten minutes, but it does seem to be reliable and I can't reproduce the earlier problems. I'm very happy with this! Do you know which release this fix would make it into? 1.1.2? 2.0? By way of background: Varnish is rapidly becoming the weapon of choice for many Plone deployments, since (a) it's much easier to grasp than Squid and (b) Plone needs a cache server in front of it. Hopefully, this will reflect positively on Varnish in terms of increased uptake. Unfortunately, this fix is already too late for my book[1] which has gone "gold" past couple of days. I had hoped to show how to set up Varnish 1.1.1, but decided it was too risky since I couldn't make it work reliably on my own site. Thus, I suggested that readers use 1.0.4 but look out for an updated version of the 1.1 series. If we get a release that I can make work reliably, I will try to issue some errata to suggest people use that version instead (since 1.1+ has features, notably Vary support, that are quite useful for Plone sites).
