[okfn-help] site caching seams to still cause problems, possibly related to login issues

OK so I've checked and it does indeed turn out okfn.org squid force
cache was misconfigured so rather than just caching okfn.org/ we were
caching okfn.org/* (i.e. everything). apologies for having missed this
before. I've now changed this and things should be better.

Hmmm not sure why -- though i think the wp-admin section is a bit
variable even with caching. Anyway things should be better now.

That's good to hear. I wonder if we should take a proper decision on
this list about whether we want to encourage use of the forums -- we
already have quite a few avenues of communication (perhaps too many
:-) ...)

After removing forcing ip to one above it got back site saying Howdy, Jason, Daniel Nils etc.

Can someone who have set it up take a closer look at it (we can meet on irc if i come of any help) and later document configuration and fixed issues on Trac? I've crated account on trac.okfn.org but looks like someone needs to give me permissions if i want to crate ticket for that myself...
