DNS Cache !

[AliAmjad]

I have a simple question just to clear my concept: When we issue a request to say http://www.example.com/ by using an HttpWebRequest object and then again send another request to the same site but different page http://www.example.com/page.html then does windows xp maintained a DNS cache for these requests means whether windows again resolve the domain name into an IP or just use its DNS Cache to get the job done or this is just for Windows and no support in .NET? Thanks in Advance !

Windows has a cache for DNS lookups, browsers generally have their own internal caches as well, and of course there are turtles caches all the way down - the whole DNS system is essentially built on the idea of distributed caching.

All i am asking is whether .NET get benefit from this Cache or not ???

There are also way to get around these caches if you wish to do so.
