Re: [squid-users] Squid refuses to cache requests.

Chown on the cache directory didnt fix things. Using the identical
configuration I've got running on this Linux/IA64 box, I installed on a
solaris machine and everything works fine! Squid caches requests under
solaris. Granted, I'm not very familiar w/ squid...but I'm quite puzzled
at why it reports TCP_MISS for every request.
