Flush DNS Cache
You can explicitly flush your DNS cache.
On Mac OS up to 10.5.1:
lookupd -flushcache
On Mac OS 10.5.2 to 10.6:
dscacheutil -flushcache
On Mac OS 10.7, dscachutil is broken and you should use a workaround:
sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
OSX 10.10
sudo discoveryutil udnsflushcaches OSX 10.9
dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder OSX 10.7 – 10.8
sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder OSX 10.5 – 10.6
sudo dscacheutil -flushcache Windows
ipconfig /flushdns Linux (depending on what you’re running)
/etc/init.d/named restart /etc/init.d/nscd restart
