[squid-users] Can't get apache to set Expire headers

I would like to set up squid in an accelerator mode. I set it up alright
but it would not cache any of the files. When I looked closer at the files,
I realized that the expire headers are not set. I made sure to install
mod_expires in apache (when I do httpd -l, I can see mod_expires.c as
installed). I also changed the .htaccess file to have the following:
### activate mod_expires
ExpiresActive On
### Expire .gif's 1 month from when they're accessed
ExpiresByType image/gif A2592000
### Expire everything else 1 day from when it's last modified
### (this uses the Alternative syntax)
ExpiresDefault "modification plus 1 day"

Yet, no expire header gets set. Here is what I get when I telnet to the
website and request an image file:

GET /images/logo.gif HTTP/1.1

HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2002 19:35:12 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.20 (Unix) ServletExecAS/3.1
Content-Type: image/gif
Content-Length: 2577
X-Cache: MISS from eqsdev
Connection: keep-alive

I was wondering maybe it is because we use servlet engine and war files to
deploy the web application? Or is there anything I'm doing wrong. Any
pointers would be greatly appreaciated.

Thank you.
