[mapserver-users] Mapserver wms-client to tilecache / mapfile definition

[bartvde at osgis.nl]

Not directly with Mapserver's built-in WMS client.

You might get lucky with the GDAL WMS-C driver, but it has some
assumptions (like all resolution ratios should be 2) that might not apply
to your TileCache instance.
