newbie: win2k using cached DNS even after cache flushing

[Jean-Christian Imbeault]

Firstly, this is an M$ windows question and very newbie-ish, but I thought 
that since it is DNS related and making testing of my BIND installation a 
pain, this would be the best forum in which to ask.

I've set up a basic BIND 9.1.2 on a RH 7.1 box and so far it working well. 
However I try and test it using my windows 2000 box (since that is what the 
clients will be using) and keeps getting frustrated. It seems that either 
win2k or IE5.1 is keeping a cached copy of DNS lookups and I can find out 
how to flush it!

I know this is a win2k/IE problem because even after I shutdown named, the 
names are still being resolved to their correct IPs. I've cleared the IE 
file cache, run an ipconfig /flushdns command and even rebooted but whenever 
I typ in HTTP://intranet into my IE I get a quick message in the information 
bar saying "Connecting to site: 192.168.0.2" ... so the name is being 
resolved ... but where is this resolv info coming from and how can I clear 
it?

This is annoying because even if I change the DNS server's entry for 
intranet, or even change the IP of the DNS server, I can't be sure it's 
working since win2k/IE seem bent on using this cached info.

Help!
