Looks like I cannot use secedit
/refreshpolicy in Windows Server 2003. How do I refresh the policies?
From now on, you use gpupdate to refresh local Group Policy settings and
Active Directory Group Policy settings.
Usuage:
gpupdate [/target:{computer|user}] [/force] [/wait:Value] [/logoff]
[/boot]
/target:{computer|user}
Refreshes only the computer settings, or only the user settings. By default,
both are refreshed.
/force
Forces an update
/wait:Value
Waits the number of seconds you specify. The default is 600. 0 means no wait,
and -1 is wait indefinitely
/logoff
Logs off after the refresh has completed. Some policies, such as Folder
Redirection processes when the user logs on, and do not process on a background
refresh cycle, which means that the change will not apply until the user has
logged off.
/boot
Restarts the computer after the refresh has completed. Some polices such as
Computer Group Policy Software Installation processes when the computer starts.
