Yes, that would be nice, wouldn't it? ;-) Unfortunately, this is for
caching a commercial shopping cart (Miva Merchant) and we can't change
the headers that are sent out programmatically (and it currently sends
no cache-related headers at all). We might be able to add an expires
header in a .htaccess file, but then we'd have to write a script
changing .htaccess at various times.

I originally tried using the init script to shut down, but I often got
errors restarting Squid when I used it. I think monitoring the pid file
as you suggest might solve that problem.

Chris' e-mail said something about this, too. I'll give it a try --
looks like my best option.
Thanks!
