How to ensure that changing of settings within the Group Policy affects each new login directly ?

    While I am testing many options to have Active Directory and Windows
    Terminal Server working I am often changing settings within the Group Policy
    of OU. However, sometimes it takes a short time to see the results after the
    change of any setting and sometimes it takes a long time. The only way to
    ensure that I test within the new settings is to restart the server, which
    is of course very annoying and takes too long time. Is there a way or
    function to call which ensures that the server applies the new settings to
    the users and Active Directories ?

    Hi Oscar,

    "Start"-"cmd"-"gpupdate".

    You may use gpupdate /? to view help of this commend.

    This method only works in Windows Server 2003.
