Roll back to to the previous state of the hosts file for this domain If for some reason bad data gets put into the hosts file that you are editing, and you would like to revert back to the previous version of the hosts file, you can do it by making this selection. This selection causes DNS Boss to: copy in the previous version of the hosts file for this domain, and remove all DNS databases, and then rebuilt all DNS databases. This removes any old non-existing DNS data. The rollback gets the previous version of the hosts file even if you are in a new GUI session.
