[squid-users] how to serve stale pages - if the originserver is dead..

Hi guys,

I still have this problem.. Can it realy be true that Squid can't do this?

I have the following scenario.. if an object reaches it's refresh-time and
thus becomes stale..
How can I set squid to serve the stale object - if the originserver doesn't
answer within a configurable amount of seconds?

I'd rather serve a - possibly old page - than serve nothing..

seek their peopl's ideas, let them initiate new projects and
