Is there anybody on this list who has apache-2.2 + mod_proxy + mod_cache
working as a reverse proxy?
I'd be very interested in their config...

Btw: i tried both mod_mem_cache and mod_disk_cache. Both didn't work. Not
with mod_proxy_http and mod_proxy_ajp.

Which sounds like good advice. In apache-2.0 mod_disk_cache appeared to be a
lot less well maintained than mod_mem_cache. Hence our preference for
mem_cache.
