NoCache


Syntax: NoCache <word/host/domain list>
Default: None
Context: server config, virtual host
Override: Not applicable
Status: Base
Module: mod_proxy
Compatibility: NoCache is only available in Apache 1.1 and later.

The NoCache directive specifies a list of words, hosts and/or domains, separated by spaces. HTTP and non-passworded FTP documents from matched words, hosts or domains are not cached by the proxy server. The proxy module will also attempt to determine IP addresses of list items which may be hostnames during startup, and cache them for match test as well. Example:

  NoCache joes-garage.com some-host.co.uk bullwinkle.wotsamattau.edu
'bullwinkle.wotsamattau.edu' would also be matched if referenced by IP address.

Note that 'wotsamattau' would also be sufficient to match 'wotsamattau.edu'.

Note also that

NoCache *
disables caching completely.
