Re: [squid-users] No_cache directive

The no_cache directive only stops content from entering the cache, it do
not stop cache hits on already cached content.

My general advice on how to control cacheing is to mostly ignore
no_cache and instead spend some time on understanding and make proper
use of refresh_pattern.
