Hello,
I have a computer assignment and I need the right command in linux. I need to display recent DNS records and clear them whenever I want. In windows "ipconfig /displaydns" and "ipconfig /flushdns" commands are used respectively. Are there any commands in linux which are equivalent to these ones? or in Linux isn't there such an option? Can "ifconfig" solve this problem? If yes what should be the exact options and command line?
Hi,
This old thread doesn't answers a very important questions: On linux is there a dns cache on the client/resolver like in windows? Or the client queries the name server for every query it needs resolved?
