Re: Update user AD group membership without rebooting

Hello Lawrence,

Normally you just add the user to the group and give some time for replication in the domain. Then the user has to log off and log on again and that's it. There is never a need for server rebooting for this changes.

Hi all,

We have recently come across an issue which requires us to be able to
update a user's group membership (as shown by gpresult) WITHOUT
rebooting. We have 2 W2K3 DCs, and without rebooting, gpresult will
not show new groups, although if the groups are used as security
groups they obvioulsy work immedialtely. I have come across many
questions similar to this without any definitiver answer, so can
someone help us out?

Thanks
