Well I've changed it to:

acl local-domain dstdomain domain.com
acl local-server dst 213.XX.XX.XXX/255.255.255.224
always_direct allow local-server
always_direct allow local-domain
no_cache deny local-server
no_cache deny local-domain

but it still doesn't work. Do I have a way to know if squid really takes
my request directly to the server and not from the cache, or if my
netscape cache is playing with me ?
