Client DNS Cache-ing

krmayfield · 05-20-2005, 12:02 PM

Does Linux do client side DNS Cache-ing? If so how can you see which address have been cached? How do you flush the cache?

I know in windose you can do a "ipconfig /diplaydns" to show the cached addresses, and an "ipconfig /flushdns" to clear the nds entries. Is there something like this in Linux?

I am not interest in building a BIND server or tinydns!!!

Just a simple question and hopefully a simple response!!!

Thank you
