Can anyone describe any command present in Red Hat Linux for clearing cache contents....though graphically, it can be cleared through browser's preferences but is there some command to clear it through CUI>>>

Hi,

Are you talking about browser cache or other cache as well?

If it is browsers you are talking about rm /path/to/browser/cache/* will do.

Opera places it here: /home/druuna/.opera/cache4/<files>
Netscape, mozilla, firefox etc etc use roughly the same setup.

Hope this is what you are looking for.
