I am doing some testing and am having to make many changes to /etc/hosts
Is there a way to reload the /etc/hosts file without doing a service
network restart?
I 'forgot' to restart network after a change and did a ping6 and it worked.
Ergo, I think my information is wrong and the /etc/hosts file content is
not cached somewhere in the client resolver code, but read fresh each
time? I am, it worked. I created a fqdn that has no connection to
anything possible in DNS, and ping6 worked....
I hope that in a while I can run BIND with a bunch of faked-out zone
files (did this once to crack a Vonage PAP2). But for right now, I
cannot introduce BIND to the equation....
