 I knew someone would correct me on at least the current versions of
Windows...

With all due respect, Windows (at lease W2K and beyond) does honor TTL
settings for DNS, hence the need for ipconfig /flushdns. Now I can't
comment
on the 95/98/ME line, but I don't consider those ready for corporate use
anyway. (Yes, I know LOTS of companies do use them, but I think they
should
only be used at home, and even then I'll always pay the extra for
W2K/XPPro)
