DNS Flush in Maverick

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: October 21, 2010
Hello, I've been having a baffling problem in Maverick (which has otherwise performed flawlessly, thanks, Devs!) I connect fine to everything on the Internet--except to my account at my ISP. I can connect to my email account neither via Thunderbird nor via Firefox. I have Lucid installed on another partition and it connects normally via both Thunderbird and Firefox. I've troubleshot this extensively with a tech at my ISP. At one point he suggested DNS flushing. So I installed nscd and followed with 'sudo /etc/init.d/nscd restart'. No luck. Then I restarted Maverick and, hey presto! I could connect. When I logged on today, I had the same problem, ran 'sudo /etc/init.d/nscd restart' again--no luck--restarted and I could connect again. So it seems that every time I want to connect to my email, I have to run 'sudo /etc/init.d/nscd restart' and then restart the computer. Any ideas? I'd greatly appreciate any advice. Thanks in Advance, mike

Secondly, how can I send the break command through PuTTY without this special command window... my Serial-to-USB converter will not seem to pass through the traditional ctrl+break key... I have tried: Ctrl+C Ctrl+Brk Brk Ctrl+A .. Ctrl+B Ctrl+shift+6+X and on... and on.. A little help here?
