Is it possible to push a GP?

[Carlos]

Hello!

Currently have an automatic update policy deployed to
systems. Wondering if automatic update policy can be
sent/push to a computer as opposed to waiting for the
schedule.

Thanks!

If you are talking about SUS then yes if you search the internet for forcing
autoupdate.

If you are talking about updating the group policy on the workstations, you
could either have them reboot, or you could go to the workstation and run
the following.

Windows 2000 = "secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy or user_policy
/enforce" without quotes
Windows XP = "gpupdate"

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
