Thanks! In case anyone is as brilliant as me, make sure you're using a capital "V". I couldn't figure it out because I was using a lowercase one. [bonk!] – TravisCarden Apr 10 '13 at 19:43

I need to find _varnishd_ first, so I used _locate_. It was located at _/usr/sbin/varnishd_ . – pmaruszczyk Aug 20 '14 at 13:36

You might also need to run it as root or with sudo – wranvaud Nov 24 '15 at 20:13

varnishd -V

This will return you something like:
