Windows Tip: Pushing out Group Policy changes across a domain
I appreciate hearing from readers with cool tips. Here's a recent submission. Please note that I haven't tested it yet, so it's presented "as is".
In response to an earlier tip of mine called Remotely forcing group policy refresh, an anonymous reader pointed out that Microsoft MVP Darren Mar-Elia has developed a tool for pushing out Group Policy changes across a domain. Darren's tool is essentially a remote version of gpupdate.exe and information about it can be found here.
I always appreciate getting reader recommendations like this, so feel free to email me if you have any others.
