how to flush DNS cache in 16.04.1 /etc/hosts is currently Code: 127.0.0.1 localhost 127.0.1.1 kris-Z97X-UD3H # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters will this work? sudo apt-get install nscd sudo /etc/init.d/nscd restart EDIT I did the above and /etc/hosts remained the same.

Display and Flush DNS cache

location: linuxquestions.com - date: March 18, 2005
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, Slackware64 13.0 I have a website that has been migrated to a new server. After a few days I'm still pointing at the old server and the hosting company have recommended that I flush my dns cache. A quick google for this in linux seemed to recommend restarting the nscd daemon but nscd -g tells me it's not running anyway. I connect to Virginmedia via wired ethernet to a Belkin N1 router so is there a way I can do this I wonder, either via Virginmedia or Slackware?
