Blueyonder
have now removed the regional transparent caches so everyone
will be accessing web pages directly. For those that still
want to go through a proxy server they have setup a centralized
one which can be accessed via webcache.blueyonder.co.uk
on port 8080.
There
is a test currently running for the new cache farm that Blueyonder
are testing, this will replace the centralized one in due
course. If you wish to try this out use cachefarm-test.cableinet.net
on port 8080, note this URL is likely to change so
I cannot guarantee how long it will work for.
I
will endeavor to update this page as things change but if
you find anything out yourself feel free to email me.

The
testing of the cache farm has ended so cachefarm-test.cableinet.net
will no longer work, hopefully they will introduce it permanently,
until then use the webcache.blueyonder.co.uk address.

From
the BY anouncements page :-
"The
cache farm, to replace the current webcache.blueyonder.co.uk
, is entering implementation phase. The machines were moved
to their racks in Knowsley today, and the "go live"
switchover will happen within the next fortnight.
If
you have any webcache set manually in your browser, please
ensure that it is webcache.blueyonder.co.uk . The remaining
regional caches will be decommissioned soon after the cache
farm goes live and customers using anything other than webcache.blueyonder.co.uk
may experience browsing problems."
