NimbostratusHi I noticed 404 pages are never delivered from cache - I suppose by design. should it be possible in any way to include 404 pages to be delivered from cache? this is in order to deal with DOS attempts by brute force on dynamically generated 404 pages. Thanks!
CirrocumulusI am assuming you are using webaccelaration profile, and not AAM.
Are you sure about that? Because I remember situations were site was down, but the servers were up. That was caused by caching, as one of the servers went down, and that page was cached. I think was 500 level code, but the same idea should apply to 400 level, as is not helpful to cache none of them.
I think your problem is more with the fact that the page is dynamically generated, so dynamic pages should never be cached. Check the headers you get when you receive that page, from the server to F5. Let me know if you need help in how to capture that.
