Hi,
What is the correct sequence of DNS cache reset? I have the following (please correct me if I'm wrong and the explanation for the correct sequence). Also does the system require a reboot after this?
net stop dns & net stop netlogon & ipconfig /flushdns & net start dns & ipconfig /registerdns & net start netlogon
TIA,
BT

Kind of vague but if you were changing the ip address of a domain controller I would do ipconfig /flushdns, ipconfig /registerdns, restart the netlogon service.

I'm changing the DNS list in the network adapter for the pdc. What would be the sequence if DNS Service also needs to be restarted? Does it require restart?
No, it does not need to restart.
I think it should be stop netlogon, ipconfig /flushdns, start netlogon, ipconfig /registerdns. Please can someone confirm this?

Please confirm. Thanks
I can confirm ipconfig /flushdns, ipconfig /registerdns, restart the netlogon service has always worked. The Netlogon service on a domain controller registers dynamic Domain Name Service (DNS) and srv records to advertise Active Directory directory services.
