Sometimes MS software just does some really stupid things. Well make that most of the time. Today I was using Interdev and while trying to setup a new web, DNS did not resolve and I received an error. Fine I said, my stupid mistake, I forgot to setup the DNS record. Ok, now that it is setup adding the web should be simple. Nope, same error. After a little investigation and running "ipconfig /flushdns" I can magically resolve the domain name now. Wow, now that is really smart. Lets cache the fact that a name could not be resolved so that any future resolution attempts fail as well.
And now for the more important question? How do I turn off the damn caching of DNS lookups?????? Why would I ever want that turned on.
