In server side, we can restart the DNS service to flush the DNS

I tried it (except that XP Run brings up Documents and Settings etc. after C: ) and got err msg: Could not flush DNS Resolver cache. Function failed to complete. - or something like that. What should I try? I was told that I could not use the Repair feature for my LAN until I flushed the DNS cache. I don’t need to do that now but thought I’d try it anyway. Appreciate the help.

Are you logged in as administrator?

I have the same problem as Susan exactly. Was it ever resolved?

Login as administrator before running the command.
Restart obviously works

you have to check whether the DNS Server and DNS Client services are running on your PC before flushdns
