    I have tried the "dscacheutil -cachedump -entries Host" terminal command but it just comes back with "-bash: dscacheutil: command not found"

    Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong or if there is a different command to use?

    I have a Mac laptop if that means anything, it's about 1.5 years old!
    Thanks.

    The command worked for me. Try entering,
    Code:
    man dscacheutil
    to see if it brings up the manual Page for it. Also, what OS do you have e.g., Tiger, Leopard?

    From the sound of this article and the comments, it sounds like it isn't available for Tiger.

    This is an old thread: One would hope that you can't access the history of a private browsing session.
