Description
The dns-flush-runner script automates the clearing of DNS cache across operating systems, helping resolve name resolution issues, redirection problems, or outdated domain mappings. It includes specific commands for each OS (e.g., ipconfig /flushdns, systemd-resolve –flush-caches, dscacheutil -flushcache), allowing for universal use.
After clearing, the script can optionally verify that flush was successful by testing key domains and logging their resolution paths. This ensures that stale entries are truly gone and that the new DNS responses are being used.
This is a go-to script in environments where systems move between networks (like laptops on enterprise Wi-Fi), use VPNs, or encounter DNS caching issues caused by routers, proxies, or aggressive TTL settings. It can be run silently during logon scripts, scheduled resets, or manual troubleshooting.
