This section discusses how to update User and Machine Group Policy.
User autoenrollment is triggered by the Winlogon process (interactive logon with CTRL+ALT+DELETE keys) or at Group Policy refresh intervals. Normally, User Group Policy is refreshed at logon and Machine Group Policy is refreshed at machine reboot. Group Policy may be manually refreshed using the gpupdate.exe tool that is included in Windows XP.
To manually force a Group Policy update (for a user or a machine)
Run gpupdate.exe with the -Force option at the command line (Figure 16).
