Darryl,
Thanks for your reply. Yes we are using purge_url, but I was under the
impression that since http://varnish.projects.linpro.no/changeset/3329,
there wasn't a problem. I've not succeeded in finding the threads you
mentioned in your email. Can you either point me at them, or let me
know their conclusion?
Thanks,
Rob
