You can see that in the log from that other mail which I included FYI.

IMHO it is not due to a missing date rule, something in the http header
makes squid think it must never ever cache the ftp url. Note that an
upstream proxy is used (a virus scanner).

I've no clue about the HTTP protocol at that level, I really need s.o.
telling me how to interprete this and what I can do (to save bandwidth I
really want to cache the ftp's)

Thanx in advance,
Michael.

[..]
I dug through the source and played with debug_options. It turns out that
httpCachableReply in http.c declares my ftp download non-cachable.

Alas, with my http knowledge I cannot tell if this is a right
interpretation of the header or not and if I could do something against
it. Someone with more knowledge look at my previous post with header log
in 'Cannot cache FTP request' and please tell me. Well here it is FYI
anyway:
