I want to test dns server from client pc.And we know client pc(OS Linux) has a DNS cache, it saves the lastest DNS resolution messages,and it will influence my test result.
So i want to know how to empty the DNS cache in client pc(OS Linux).
Two ways to do what you are looking for:
a) Query DNS directly, bypassing the name service cache. For example the bind-utils (host, dig, nslookup)
b) Restart the name service cache (nscd) to flush the cache.
