It now looks as if chromium's DNS cache may not be the problem. Chromium must be getting slashdot's IP address from somewhere else -- somewhere that firefox and ping don't access. >> >> How can I get it to forget it? >> >> -- hendrik > > Navigate to chrome://net-internals/#dns and press the "Clear host cache" > button. After navigating there from chromium and pressing the button, slashdot.org doesn't appear in the listing of the cache entries on that page. But the misbehaviour still persists, even after a reboot. And firefox and chrome and ping still reach the right site. And when I go to chrome://net-internals/#dns on chrome itself, it tells mem it *does* have slashdot.org in its cache, with the right IP number. The cache chromium reveals with chrome://net-internals/#dns clearly has different contents from the one that chrome reveals -- which confirms that they have different caches. And even after browsing to slashdot.org in chromium and getting to the wrong place, going to chrome://net-internals/#dns with chromium still indicates that slashdot.org is not in the cache. So I'm suspecting that chrome://net-internals/#dns may not reeveal the real cache in chromium. So where *is* chromium getting this misinformation?
