Clearing DNS Cache

location: linuxquestions.com - date: May 26, 2013
Just wanted to say, before I started this thread, I did do some research on the Internet as well as the forums. I'm in the process of migrating a few sites from one server to another, and in the process, instead of changing the DNS records, I modified my hosts file to point to the new server. The new server is running Nginx and several server blocks. I've had to change the hosts file a few times, however this evening the cache seems to have not cleared yet, and I can't find a manual way of clearing the cache. I've even tried rebooting as a last resort. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. Thanks.

Hi, i have setup a forward dns entry and i have specified the ip 192.169.x.x (i got this ip from the ifconfig command) Now when i do nslookup finds the domain perfectly but the problem is that it can be only viewable privately not publically viewable.

Hi.... in my company we have our own local domain defined, it' like INT.COMPANY.COM. I installed fresh Linux Mint 14 (Ubuntu 12.10) distribution and i want to add my computer to domain. This is what i did. First i install winbind samba krb5-user. Then i edit /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base file so it looks like this: Code: search int.company.com dc-1.int.company.com 192.168.0.1 dc-2.int.company.com 192.168.0.2 dc-3.int.company.com 192.168.0.3 Then edited /etc/krb5.conf file so its looks like this: Code: [logging] default = FILE10000:/var/log/krb5lib.log [libdefaults] ticket_lifetime = 24000 default_realm = INT.COMPANY.COM [realms] INT.COMPANY.COM = { kdc = dc-1.int.company.com kdc = dc-2.int.company.com kdc = dc-3.int.company.com admin_server = dc-1.int.company.com admin_server = dc-2.int.company.com admin_server = dc-3.int.company.com master_kdc = dc-1.int.company.com default_domain = INT.COMPANY.COM }

How do I get Netstat to show DNS lookups?

location: ubuntuforums.com - date: March 10, 2012

When Firefox connects to the internet and does a DNS lookup of a website I'm trying to connect to, how do I get Netstat to show this DNS lookup request to port 53 in the Terminal read out?
