The cache.dns has the root servers of the internet listed. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772774%28WS.10%29.aspx#w2k3tr_dns_how_gaxc DNS servers use this file to locate root servers on either your network or the internet. I wrote that because some people think that this file is for the DNS cached records. So, to make sure that all is okay with that file, you should edit the configuration of the root servers on your DNS server and check if the cache.dns file updated or not.

Hello Sandeep, By default, when DNS is running on a domain controller, the root hints are read from Active Directory upon startup first. If no root hints exist in Active Directory, the Cache.dns file is read. So you find that cache.dns is not updating.
