Hi Joshua,

I think the exact answer to your question depends on the shell that you
are using. For bash, I think you can just type 'rehash'. For tcsh, I think
if you re-source your .cshrc (or .tcshrc) file, then the cache will be
refreshed.

You could also try simply exiting your shell, and re-logging in. It is
very rare to need to reboot in UNIX.

Good luck,
